⚡ Bolt: React Context and Render Optimizations#536
Conversation
Identified and fixed several performance bottlenecks: 1. Memoized MapDataProvider context value to prevent global re-renders. 2. Optimized ChatMessages by memoizing the message grouping logic, reducing O(n) work on every render. 3. Refactored Chat component to use derived state for showEmptyScreen, eliminating an extra render cycle. 4. Removed redundant MapDataProvider nesting in Chat.tsx to follow the project's architectural pattern and prevent stale state bugs. Verified with linting and manual E2E testing. Added explanatory comments to ensure architectural clarity. Co-authored-by: ngoiyaeric <115367894+ngoiyaeric@users.noreply.github.com>

Main concerns are (1) introduction of any in a now-hot-path grouping reducer and (2) a potentially out-of-scope, safety-reducing MapData type reshaping that could cause runtime issues despite passing tsc. The perf optimizations themselves look sound, but simplifying duplicated empty checks in ChatMessages would tighten the implementation. No issues found with the provider memoization or removal of redundant providers beyond the type/API churn.
Additional notes (1)
- Readability |
components/chat-messages.tsx:13-49
useMemoreturns[]whenmessages.length === 0, but the component still separately checksif (!messages.length) return null. This duplicates the condition and adds a second branch to maintain. It’s minor, but since this component is explicitly being optimized, it’s worth simplifying to a single source of truth.

The reducer uses an any accumulator (acc: { [key: string]: any }) and then later asserts components to React.ReactNode[]. This is type-valid but unsafe: it makes it easy to accidentally push non-nodes (or the wrong shape) and only find out at runtime. Since this code is now a core hot path (and explicitly optimized), it’s a good candidate to strongly type to prevent accidental regressions.
Suggestion
Replace the any accumulator with a typed record so you don’t need post-hoc casts. For example:
- Define a grouped type:
type Group = { id: string; components: React.ReactNode[]; isCollapsed?: StreamableValue<boolean> }const grouped = messages.reduce<Record<string, Group>>((acc, m) => { ... }, {})
Then Object.values(grouped) is already Group[] and you can drop as React.ReactNode[] and the final as {...}[] assertion.

MapData was significantly reshaped in this diff (e.g., drawnFeatures changed from optional structured objects to required any[], and cameraState.center changed from {lat,lng} to a tuple). That’s a large API shift for a shared context type and can silently reduce safety across the app. Even if this compiles, it increases the chance of runtime misuse and makes the context harder to evolve.
Given the PR scope is perf/memoization, this looks like unrelated churn that should either be justified with follow-up changes or kept backward-compatible.
Suggestion
Minimize unrelated API surface changes:
- Restore the previous explicit
drawnFeatureselement shape (or introduce a namedDrawnFeaturetype) instead ofany[]. - If
cameraState.centermust be a tuple, consider supporting both shapes temporarily (or add a migration layer) to avoid breaking downstream assumptions.
If the broader type changes are intentional, add a short rationale in the PR description and update any affected consumers in the same PR.
Reply with "@CharlieHelps yes please" if you’d like me to add a commit that reintroduces strong types for MapData while keeping your memoization change intact.

console.log; also fix thedrawnFeaturestruthiness guard.Two issues in this effect:
1. Debug log leaks user geo data (line 98):
console.log(... mapData.drawnFeatures)writes the user's raw drawn geographic features to the browser console on every change, which is a privacy/compliance concern in production. It should be removed.2.
mapData.drawnFeatures &&is always truthy (line 97):
drawnFeaturesis typed asany[]and initialized as[]. An empty array is truthy in JavaScript, so the guard never prevents the call when features are absent. If the intention is to skip the server action when there are no drawn features, use a length check.🛠️ Proposed fix

components/chat.tsx (2)
40-42: LGTM —showEmptyScreenderivation correctly eliminates the render-cycle delay.The
useState + useEffectpattern would have shown the wrong state for one render cycle whenmessageschanged. The derived constant is synchronous, correct, and simpler.
128-132: All Chat render sites are properly wrapped with MapDataProvider—no architectural risk.Both page-level renders of the Chat component (app/page.tsx and app/search/[id]/page.tsx) are correctly wrapped within MapDataProvider. No test files, story files, or alternate routes instantiate Chat without the provider. The refactoring is architecturally sound.
components/map/map-data-context.tsx (1)
35-41: LGTM —useMemodependency array is correct.React guarantees that
setStatefunction identity is stable and won't change on re-renders, which is why it's safe to omit fromuseEffectoruseCallback(and by extensionuseMemo) dependency lists. OmittingsetMapDatafrom[mapData]is intentional and correct; the memoized value object will still update whenevermapDatastate changes, preventing spurious re-renders of the entire consumer tree on parent re-renders.

React namespace is not imported — React.ReactNode type annotations will fail TypeScript compilation.
Line 3 only imports { useMemo } from React; the React namespace is never brought into scope. The file references React.ReactNode[] at lines 39, 42, and 57, which requires the namespace to be available. This will cause TypeScript compilation errors (TS2304: Cannot find name 'React').
To fix, add the React default import:
-import { useMemo } from 'react'
+import React, { useMemo } from 'react'Or use the modern approach with the new JSX transform:
-import { useMemo } from 'react'
+import { useMemo, type ReactNode } from 'react'Then replace all React.ReactNode[] with ReactNode[] throughout the file.

🧹 Nitpick | 🔵 Trivial
Redundant empty-array guard inside useMemo.
messages.reduce(...) on an empty array returns {}, and Object.values({}).map(...) returns [], so the if (!messages.length) return [] at line 16 is a no-op. The only meaningful guard is the early return null at line 47 after the useMemo call. The internal check can be removed to reduce duplication.

Breaking change: removing targetPosition, currentTimezone, and mapFeature from MapData breaks multiple components.
The new MapData interface removes fields that are actively used across the codebase:
-
targetPosition— used in 4 files:components/calendar-notepad.tsx: read at line 83 (if (mapData.targetPosition)) and written at line 85components/map/google-map.tsx: read and included in dependency arraycomponents/map/map-query-handler.tsx: written when updating map datacomponents/map/mapbox-map.tsx: read in useEffect and listed in dependency array
-
currentTimezone— used incomponents/header-search-button.tsx(read at form submission) -
mapFeature— used incomponents/map/map-query-handler.tsx(written) andcomponents/map/mapbox-map.tsx(in dependency array)
These will generate TypeScript compilation errors (Property 'X' does not exist on type 'MapData'). Restore these fields to the MapData interface, or update all dependent components to use alternative approaches before merging.

This PR implements a series of React-level performance optimizations:
1. Context Value Memoization
In
components/map/map-data-context.tsx, the context value was an object literal created on every render. This caused every consumer ofuseMapData(including the main map and chat components) to re-render whenever the provider's parent re-rendered. Wrapping this inuseMemostabilizes the reference.2. Message Grouping Memoization
In
components/chat-messages.tsx, themessagesarray was being reduced and mapped into a grouped structure on every single render. As chat history grows, this O(n) operation becomes increasingly expensive. This logic is now memoized to only run when themessagesarray actually changes.3. Derived State in Chat
In
components/chat.tsx, theshowEmptyScreenlogic was previously managed viauseStateanduseEffect. This caused a redundant second render pass whenever messages updated. Replaced this with a derived constant:const showEmptyScreen = messages.length === 0.4. Architectural Cleanup (Shadowing)
Removed nested
<MapDataProvider>wrappers withincomponents/chat.tsx. The project follows a pattern of providing map data at the page level (app/page.tsx). Redundant nesting was causing "shadowing," where the chat logic used the page's provider but child components used the leaf's provider, leading to potential stale state bugs and increased component depth.Impact:
