+> **📈 Performance note — v1.13.1 through v1.13.4**
+> Although versions 1.13.1–1.13.4 were released as targeted bugfix releases, the
+> cumulative effect of the fixes delivered a significant performance improvement:
+>
+> - **v1.13.1** — Bot non-response fix eliminated a silent failure path that caused
+>   repeated dedup-marked command re-evaluation on every message tick.
+> - **v1.13.2** — Map display fixes prevented Leaflet from being initialized on hidden
+>   zero-size containers, removing a source of repeated failed bootstrap retries and
+>   associated DOM churn.
+> - **v1.13.3** — Active panel timer gating reduced the 500 ms dashboard update work to
+>   only the currently visible panel, cutting unnecessary UI updates and background
+>   redraw load substantially — especially noticeable over VPN or on slower hardware.
+> - **v1.13.4** — Room Server event classification fix and sender name resolution removed
+>   redundant fallback processing paths and reduced per-tick contact lookup overhead.
+>
+> Users upgrading from v1.12.x or earlier will notice noticeably faster panel switching,
+> lower CPU usage during idle operation, and more stable map rendering.
