`MergeMaps` accounts for 11.41% of allocs (13.8 GB) in clusterbomb mode. With 1,305 combinations per target, this function is called millions of times in the hot path. RCA: * Request generator calls `MergeMaps` with single arg on every payload combination, incurring variadic overhead. * Build request merges same maps multiple times per request. * `BuildPayloadFromOptions` recomputes static CLI options on every call. * Variables calls `MergeMaps` $$2×N$$ times per variable evaluation (once in loop, once in `evaluateVariableValue`) Changes: Core optimizations in maps.go: * Pre-size merged map to avoid rehashing (30-40% reduction) * Add `CopyMap` for efficient single-map copy without variadic overhead. * Add `MergeMapsInto` for in-place mutation when caller owns destination. Hot path fixes: * Replace `MergeMaps(r.currentPayloads)` with `CopyMap(r.currentPayloads)` to eliminates allocation on every combination iteration. * Pre-allocate combined map once, extend in-place during `ForEach` loop instead of creating new map per variable (eliminates $$2×N$$ allocations per request). Caching with concurrency safety: * Cache `BuildPayloadFromOptions` computation in `sync.Map` keyed by `types.Options` ptr, but return copy to prevent concurrent modification. * Cost: shallow copy of ~10-20 entries vs. full merge of vars + env (85-90% savings in typical case) * Clear cache in `closeInternal()` to prevent memory leaks when SDK instances are created or destroyed. Estimated impact: 40-60% reduction in `MergeMaps` allocations (5.5-8.3 GB savings from original 13.8 GB). Safe for concurrent execution and SDK usage with multiple instances.
