💡 What: Replaced naive O(N^2) pairwise distance neighbor check with a spatial hashing grid implementation. Buckets agents into cells based on perception_radius, and only checks distances against agents in the local 3x3x3 cell neighborhood.
🎯 Why: Agent-based simulations like swarm flocking hit a severe scaling limit because every agent checked the distance to every other agent. As N grew to 10,000, execution time was dominated by evaluating 100M pairwise combinations.
📊 Impact:
N=2000 -> 0.48s to 0.33s
N=4000 -> 1.37s to 0.68s
N=10000 -> 10.6s to 1.57s
(Provides massive, scaling speedups as N grows)
🔬 Measurement: Verified with timing scripts scaling N, and
uv run pytest src/codomyrmex/tests/unit/meme/to ensure flocking and related swarm logic remain behaviorally correct.PR created automatically by Jules for task 10281949608104057553 started by @docxology
