# Replacing `(e * params.theta[:, factors]).sum(axis=0)` makes it ~5x faster
# (e.g., 8.5ms down to 1.7ms on large matrices) and drastically reduces peak memory.

# Optimized gradient computation: replace loop over dimensions with matrix multiplication
# We embed 'a' directly into the projection matrix to avoid a JxD intermediate array allocation during multiplication
