💡 What: Replaced the for loop that iterates through large_exts checking file extensions one-by-one with path.endswith(tuple(large_exts)) in src/proxy_server.py:645.

🎯 Why: The previous for loop iteration involves explicit Python-level jumps and method calls on each loop run. str.endswith natively supports multiple string matching using tuples executed entirely in C, eliminating the Python looping overhead.

📊 Measured Improvement:
A benchmark simulating calls to this block (100,000 iterations across 5 mixed URLs) yielded the following results:

  • Baseline (Old Loop): 3.18040s
  • Improvement (Inline Tuple): 0.94229s
    This represents an approximate ~3.3x speedup (70% reduction in execution time) for this specific code path.

Replace a manual `for` loop in `_is_likely_download` with Python's optimized `str.endswith(tuple(...))` for significant performance gains.
