Why Kora Stays Fast: Off-thread Engines and Desktop Performance

Kora has a dedicated off-thread compute layer that prevents UI slowdown and enables "big library / big workspace" scaling.

What it enables

  • seeded walkdir scans with progress + cancel
  • computing derived structures without blocking UI
  • future-proofing: more heavy work can be moved off-thread (exports, detection scans, etc.)

Why this matters
