πŸ’‘ What:
Optimized the applyThreshold function in pkg/graphics/graph_engine.go to improve image processing performance.

🎯 Why:
The previous implementation relied on repeated interface method calls (GrayAt, SetPixel) inside nested loops, which introduced significant overhead. Direct memory access is much faster for tight loops.

πŸ“Š Measured Improvement:

  • Baseline: ~5.4ms per operation (576x2000px image)
  • Optimized: ~1.87ms per operation
  • Speedup: ~2.9x faster

A new benchmark test pkg/graphics/internal_benchmark_test.go was added to verify these results. Existing tests pass, ensuring no regression in functionality.

Optimized `applyThreshold` in `pkg/graphics/graph_engine.go` by:
- Replacing `GrayAt` interface calls with direct `Pix` slice access.
- Replacing `SetPixel` calls with direct `data` slice access.
- Implementing byte-wise processing loop to reduce bitwise operations.

Benchmark (`pkg/graphics/internal_benchmark_test.go`) shows ~2.9x improvement (5.4ms -> 1.87ms) for 576x2000px images.

Updated `LEARNING.md` with optimization details.
