Conversation
Refactored nested loops used for matching exercises to their corresponding solutions in `MaterialExtractor.get_all_exercises` and `RAGIndexer.index_materials`. The previous O(N*M) complexity is reduced to O(N) by pre-computing a dictionary of solutions mapped by exercise labels. This preserves first-match semantics.

Pull request overview
Optimizes exercise-to-solution matching in extraction and RAG indexing by replacing nested scans with precomputed lookup dictionaries to reduce runtime on large materials.
Changes:
- Refactor exercise→solution matching to use a
solutions_dictinMaterialExtractor.get_all_exercisesandRAGIndexer.index_materials. - Add a local benchmark script (
perf_test_loops.py) and a Jules “Bolt” learning note documenting the optimization pattern. - Update packaging metadata to include an additional test file in
evolutia.egg-info/SOURCES.txt.

extract_from_file returns the result dict immediately, so the cache-write block below is unreachable and references result (which is never defined). This breaks the file cache and makes the use_cache flag ineffective. Assign the dict to a result variable, update the cache before returning, and remove the unreachable return/dead code path.

This benchmark script executes work at import time (no if __name__ == "__main__": guard), which is risky if the file is ever imported by tooling. Also the output label says O(N*M) even though get_all_exercises is now optimized. Consider guarding the entrypoint and renaming/moving the script under a dedicated scripts/ or benchmarks/ location to avoid accidental execution.

💡 What:
Refactored nested
forloops used to match exercises to their corresponding solutions into hash map dictionary lookups in bothevolutia/material_extractor.pyandevolutia/rag/rag_indexer.py.🎯 Why:$O(N \times M)$ time complexity (where $N$ is exercises and $M$ is solutions), creating a significant performance bottleneck during bulk processing of large materials. By pre-computing a dictionary, the lookup is optimized to $O(N)$ .
The previous implementation iterated through all solutions for every exercise within a material to find a matching label. This resulted in an
📊 Impact:$O(N \times M)$ to $O(N + M)$ . In local benchmarks with large materials (1000 exercises and 1000 solutions), execution time dropped from ~3.97s to ~0.16s, a ~95% speed improvement.
