  • In-memory state persistence without file I/O
  • Thread-safe implementation with proper locking
  • Change counting and tracking
  • Timestamp-based save verification
// Example auto-save implementation (simplified)
fn record_input_and_check_save(&self) {
    let mut counter = self.input_counter.lock().unwrap();
    *counter += 1;

    // Auto-save every Nth change
    if *counter % self.auto_save_frequency == 0 {
        self.save_state_to_memory();
        println!("Auto-saved performance state after {} changes", *counter);
    }
}

fn save_state_to_memory(&self) {
    // In-memory snapshot of performance configurations
    let resources = self.resources.lock().unwrap();
    let metrics = self.metrics.lock().unwrap();

    println!("In-memory performance snapshot created: {} resources, {} metrics", 
            resources.len(), metrics.len());
}
