Airport lookups were using O(n) linear scans through 6000+ airports. IATA/ICAO code lookups now use O(1) hash indexes. List methods now cache results.
Changes
find_by_iata_code: Direct hash lookup viaparsed_data[iata_code]instead ofall.find(6x faster)find_by_icao_code: Lazy-loaded ICAO reverse index for O(1) lookup instead ofall.find(7x faster)iata_codes/icao_codes: Memoized results to eliminate redundant array allocation (333x and 463x faster respectively)Performance Impact
No API changes. Added tests to verify caching behavior.
