v2.1.27

The daemon no longer eats memory while you type; \resizebox-wrapped tables render natively.

Memory

• Typing bursts no longer ratchet the daemon's memory. Every keystroke
  pushes the whole buffer, and every push used to render the whole document
  — concurrently. On a long paper each render outlasts the typing debounce,
  so a burst of keystrokes meant tens of full renders in flight at once
  (each holding a parsed document plus its HTML), and the allocator kept
  that peak: measured 122 → 467–510 MiB per burst on the release binary,
  and on Linux it never came back. Over days of editing that is an
  out-of-memory kill — as reported by a user whose editor session was
  OOM-killed at 3.3 GB after nine hours. Renders are now strictly
  one-at-a-time and pushes coalesce onto the newest keystroke: a push
  superseded before it renders stores its buffer (a push for an \input
  child is never dropped by a concurrent push for the root, or by a save)
  but skips the render — the newest push renders everything. Peak memory
  during a burst is bounded by one render, and it settles back down between
  bursts instead of ratcheting; a sustained burst finishes in a fraction of
  the time.
• The editor plugin keeps at most one buffer upload in flight. A new
  push used to spawn a fresh curl alongside any still-uploading one; on a
  slow render that piled up 100+ concurrent curl processes, each holding
  the whole buffer in its pipe, inside the editor's own process tree — the
  memory a systemd unit charges to the editor. A newer push now cancels the
  in-flight upload before starting.

Rendering

• \resizebox-wrapped tables render natively. A tabular inside
  \resizebox{\textwidth}{!}{…} (or \scalebox / \rotatebox, starred
  forms included) outside a float was left in prose, where it degraded into
  unsupported-environment chips with raw &-separated cells — the common
  \begin{center}\resizebox…{\begin{tabular}… pattern. The box transforms
  now unwrap: sizing arguments are dropped (a reflowing HTML preview can't
  honor them; comment-split and undelimited arguments scan correctly) and
  the content parses normally, so the table renders as a real table at
  natural size.

If you were hit by the memory issue: upgrade the daemon binary AND the
plugin (both changed), then :MathPreviewRestart so the running daemon is
the new one — a reused long-lived daemon keeps the old behavior.
