35Notes about the SEO tester performance improvements
36- In-memory caching: repeated analyses for the same URL use a short (5 minute) cache to avoid refetching HTML.
37- Fetch timeout: network fetches use an 8s AbortController timeout to avoid long hangs.
38- UI responsiveness: removed unnecessary UI delays and shortened the animated counters for a snappier feel.
39
40Testing the improvements
41- Run an analysis on a URL (for example https://github.com). Re-run the same URL and you should see the second run complete faster.
42- Test a slow or non-responsive target to see the 8s timeout and error handling.

44Developer notes
45- Type checking: after installing deps run `npx tsc --noEmit` to run TypeScript checks.
46- Linting: `npm run lint` (requires eslint installed via `npm install`).
47- The simple cache is stored in-memory (window.__seo_tester_cache_v1). If you want persistence across reloads, persist to localStorage or a small server-side cache.
