Description
Problem
The navbar component has performance issues causing poor scroll experience:
- Unthrottled scroll events -
useMotionValueEvent fires 60-100 times/second, causing excessive re-renders
- Missing image optimization - Logo image lacks lazy loading, priority settings, and proper sizing
Location
apps/web/src/components/landing-sections/navbar.tsx
Steps to Reproduce
🎯 Solution
1. Adding throttling to scroll handler:
- Using
useRef + useCallback to throttle scroll events to 50ms
- Only update state when navbar visibility actually changes
- Reduces state updates by ~95% (from 60-100/sec to 2-3/sec)
2. Optimize image loading:
- Adding
loading="lazy" for non-critical pages
- Using
priority on pricing page
- Adding
sizes attribute for responsive optimization
- Fixing alt text for accessibility
Expected Behavior
Impact
Before: 60-100 state updates/sec, eager image loading
After: 2-3 state updates/sec, smart lazy loading
Performance gain: ~95% reduction in re-renders

Actual Behavior
When scrolling on the landing page, the navbar triggers 60-100 state updates per second, causing:
- Janky/laggy scroll performance
- High CPU usage (visible in DevTools Performance tab)
- Excessive React re-renders
- Poor experience on low-end devices and mobile
The logo image loads eagerly on all pages, wasting bandwidth and slowing initial page load.
