Implemented two key optimizations for HolePatternSeal: 1. Smart multiprocessing threshold - Use sequential execution for ≤2 frequencies - Avoids multiprocessing overhead (~0.106s) for small workloads - Adds context manager for proper resource cleanup - Improvement: 1.60x faster for 1-2 frequencies 2. Cached calculations in form_rhs() - Pre-compute constant values (gamma*R, radius*omega, etc.) - Cache expensive power operations (T**1.5) - Reduce redundant calculations - Improvement: Additional ~2% speedup Performance results: - Single frequency: 0.342s → 0.209s (1.64x faster) - 2 frequencies: ~0.450s → ~0.350s (1.29x faster) - 5+ frequencies: No degradation (multiprocessing still beneficial) All tests pass with maintained numerical accuracy. Fully backward compatible - API unchanged.
