 The first continuity pass only warmed Monitor, Tracks, History and Statistics in the background. A production cold-cache audit with 450 ms simulated latency still measured roughly 1.66 seconds for `/monitor` to `/access`, leaving Vehicles, Alerts, Access and Operations dependent on click-time loading. The idle queue now covers all eight route sections in bounded batches of two. It still skips `saveData`, `slow-2g` and `2g` connections, while pointer/focus/down intent preloading remains the fastest path for an immediately selected destination. Unit coverage proves every inactive route is queued and that cleanup cancels the next idle batch.
 
+A production route-memory loop did not prove a retained application leak: after natural collection, JS heap returned to roughly its initial 31 MB range and old map documents/frames were released. It did expose an ineffective rendering hint: `content-visibility: auto` was attached to the always-visible vehicle scroll viewport instead of the 200 independently off-screen rows. The containment boundary now lives on every desktop rail row and mobile list card, paired with `contain-intrinsic-size` so skipped content keeps stable scroll geometry. This follows the CSS Containment specification's long-scroll-list use case while avoiding the documented scrollbar jump caused by missing intrinsic size: <https://www.w3.org/TR/css-contain-2/#content-visibility>.
+
 The navigation and progressive-loading direction follows mature observability systems: persistent global controls, collapsible sections and loading only the content needed for the current task. Elastic documents these dashboard interaction and panel-organization patterns here: <https://www.elastic.co/docs/explore-analyze/dashboards/using> and <https://www.elastic.co/docs/explore-analyze/dashboards/arrange-panels>.
