🎯 Changes

Replace the three temporary arrays used to read a hash-history URL with string offsets. Preserve outer-query placement, repeated fragments, encoded delimiters, and the existing URL normalization. No cache or changes to parseHref.

Performance

Local Node.js 24.12.0 comparison of 6494e75362 and 7edd7ea841, using 128 mixed URLs and actual createHashHistory reads with a synthetic window/history object. Medians from seven alternating timing rounds of 500,000 reads and three allocation profiles of 100,000 reads:

Metric Before After Change
Mixed-URL read time 186.22 ms 145.94 ms -21.6%
Sampled allocation bytes 69,181,536 49,211,424 -28.9%
Standalone hash-history bundle, gzip 2,001 bytes 1,990 bytes -11 bytes

Allocation profiles include objects collected by GC; these are not retained-heap or end-to-end application measurements. The standalone bundle uses Vite 8.0.14, minified ESM, es2022, and gzip level 9. Browser-history-only output is byte-identical.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

createHashHistory now parses hash URLs with indexed slicing instead of temporary arrays. Tests cover complex paths, queries, fragments, encoding, repeated hashes, and empty hashes. A patch changeset records the update.

Changes

Hash history parsing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Hash parsing and validation
packages/history/src/index.ts, packages/history/tests/createHashHistory.test.ts, .changeset/history-hash-allocations.md
Hash-history parsing preserves path, search parameters, and secondary fragments without split-and-join allocation. Parameterized tests validate initial loads and navigation across complex hash URLs. The changeset declares a patch release.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Suggested reviewers: sheraff

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 7edd7

Hash-history URLs with an empty hash and outer query now resolve to an invalid logical root location. This is a small localized fix, but it should be corrected before merge to preserve URL parsing behavior.

path segment defaults to “/” before combining it with the query string. Preserve
existing behavior for non-empty hash paths and ensure a hash of “#” with a
search query produces the root location with that query.
