 ## 2024-05-24 - openpyxl read_only optimization
 **Learning:** `openpyxl.load_workbook(..., read_only=True)` is significantly faster (1.75x) for parsing large files but requires explicit `wb.close()` (preferably in `try...finally`) as it keeps file handles open and `Workbook` objects may not support context managers in all versions.
 **Action:** Use `read_only=True` for read-heavy Excel tasks and always ensure `close()` is called.
+
+## 2025-02-20 - Docx DOM traversal bottleneck
+**Learning:** `DocxXMLEditor`'s `_get_next_change_id` was performing a full DOM scan (`getElementsByTagName`) for *every* new tracked change, leading to $O(N \cdot M)$ complexity. Caching the next ID reduces this to $O(M + N)$, yielding a 20x speedup for batch insertions.
+**Action:** When working with `minidom` or any XML DOM, cache calculated values (like max IDs) instead of re-scanning the tree, especially in loops.
