…zation

Enhanced the graph feature design with a user-friendly diagram mode:

Simple Diagram Mode:
- New `diagram` command alias for `graph --simple`
- One-liner to visualize database: `sql-splitter diagram dump.sql`
- Opens interactive HTML diagram in browser by default
- Auto-excludes system tables (migrations, schema_*, etc.)
- Supports direct rendering: .png, .svg, .pdf, .html

Features Added:
- Interactive HTML output with embedded Mermaid
  - No external dependencies
  - Hover to highlight, click to focus
  - Dark mode support, zoom & pan
- Auto-render to PNG/SVG via Graphviz
- Layout options (lr, tb, radial)
- Theme support (default, dark, minimal)
- --open flag to auto-open in browser
- --clean flag for automatic system table exclusion

Updated Components:
- Added diagram.rs CLI handler
- Added html.rs output writer
- Added render.rs for auto-rendering
- Added simplify.rs for table cleanup

Effort Update:
- Increased from 8h to 12h due to:
  - Interactive HTML output implementation
  - Simplified diagram command UX
  - Auto-rendering capabilities

This addresses the user's request for a simpler "make a database diagram"
mode that doesn't require understanding advanced graph export formats.

Examples:
  sql-splitter diagram dump.sql              # Opens in browser
  sql-splitter diagram dump.sql -o schema.png  # Auto-render PNG
  sql-splitter diagram dump.sql --clean       # Exclude system tables

Created comprehensive analysis of practical parallel implementation challenges
using the analyze command as a case study.

Key Findings:
- Analyze is I/O bound (600 MB/s disk), not CPU bound
- Single-file parallelization has limited benefit (1-2x on NVMe)
- Multi-file parallelization is simpler and more effective (8x)
- Compressed files are CPU-bound (4x speedup from parallel decompression)

Challenges Documented:
1. Sequential file reading - can't parallelize single file handle
2. Statement boundary detection - semicolons in strings
3. Memory explosion - chunking requires loading entire file
4. Lock contention - naive shared state slower than single-threaded
5. Compression complexity - most formats are sequential

Solutions Analyzed:
- File chunking (complex, limited benefit)
- Streaming with bounded queues (better memory, still I/O bound)
- Multi-file glob patterns (simple, highly effective)
- Compressed file optimization (good CPU-bound use case)

Recommendations:
- Skip single-file parallel for analyze command
- Implement multi-file glob parallelism instead
- Focus v2.0.0 parallel efforts on CPU-bound commands:
  * convert (type conversion)
  * redact (fake data generation)
  * validate (PK checking)

Includes code examples, benchmarks, and practical implementation strategies.
This serves as reference for parallel processing decision-making.

…ation

Created detailed analysis of parallelization strategies, challenges, and
expected performance for all 9 major commands.

Command Analysis Summary:

HIGH PRIORITY (v2.0.0 MVP):
✅ Convert:   6x speedup, low complexity (CPU-bound type conversion)
✅ Redact:    5x speedup, low-med complexity (CPU-bound fake generation)
✅ Validate:  6x speedup, medium complexity (CPU-bound PK/FK checking)
✅ Merge:     7x speedup, low complexity (embarrassingly parallel)

MEDIUM PRIORITY (v2.1.0):
⚠️ Split:    3x speedup, medium complexity (I/O dependent, file handles)
✅ Diff:     5x speedup, medium complexity (CPU-bound hashing)

LOW PRIORITY (v2.2+):
❌ Sample:   1.5x speedup, high complexity (sequential FK dependencies)
❌ Shard:    1.5x speedup, high complexity (sequential FK dependencies)
❌ Analyze:  1.2x speedup, limited benefit (I/O bound)

Key Findings:

1. CPU-bound commands (convert, redact, validate) see 4-6x speedup
2. I/O-bound commands (analyze, sample, shard) see <2x speedup
3. Sequential FK dependency chains (sample, shard) hard to parallelize
4. Multi-file operations (merge) trivially parallel (7-8x)

Challenges Documented per Command:
- Convert: Order preservation, COPY block handling
- Redact: Deterministic RNG seeding, shuffle strategy
- Validate: Cross-table FK dependencies, shared PK sets
- Split: File handle exhaustion, disk I/O contention
- Diff: Memory for large tables (same as current)
- Sample/Shard: Sequential FK chain traversal
- Merge: None (trivial)

Reusable Components Identified:
- Statement chunking utility
- Ordered output writer
- Thread pool abstraction
- Progress reporting for parallel operations

This analysis confirms v2.0.0 effort estimate (~60h) and provides
detailed implementation roadmap for parallel processing feature.
