Optimize PersistentObject operations using a more efficient data structure #2679

Open rudyflores opened 9 months ago

rudyflores commented 9 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently the Persistent object stores the following items as arrays, which can be inneficient if we decided to go ahead with #2677 and potentially have several items in our history view for performing CRUD operations.

Describe the solution you'd like

This could be optimized through the use of a hashmap, a good example of a benefit of this could be the searchHistory, if we store the values as in a key/value pair structure we could have stuff such as the timestamp in the value for each item as well and allow O(1) access for users on a Persistent object containing 1000+ items inside vs an array having to search for that item.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Currently there is no workaround, since the current code uses arrays at a fixed index of 5 items which do not introduce a problem unless we decided to have this unbounded in the future.
