💡 What:
Replaced File.ReadAllText and File.WriteAllText in ModCollectionService with stream-based synchronous alternatives: File.OpenRead and new FileStream(..., bufferSize: 32768).

🎯 Why:
The previous implementation materialized the entire file content into an intermediate string prior to serialization/deserialization. The issue mentions converting to File.ReadAllTextAsync(), but since the method is called synchronously inside lock blocks and constructors, async conversion would require cascading changes throughout the service. A synchronous streaming approach achieves excellent memory optimization while retaining safety and correctness without invasive changes.

📊 Measured Improvement:
I generated a dummy collections catalog representing moderate/heavy usage (50 collections, 20 items each = ~114 KB of JSON) and benchmarked the file IO paths.

Memory allocations:

  • SaveCatalog (WriteAllText): ~223.59 MB allocated per 1000 operations

  • SaveCatalog (Stream): ~32.46 MB allocated per 1000 operations (85% reduction)

  • LoadCatalog (ReadAllText): ~661.99 MB allocated per 1000 operations

  • LoadCatalog (Stream): ~200.69 MB allocated per 1000 operations (69% reduction)

Execution time:
The CPU time improvement varies but consistently favored streaming in tests due to far fewer memory allocations and GC collections.
