# 대규모 데이터 렌더링 및 가상화 최적화

## 매 한 줄
> **"매 보이는 것만 그린다"**. 100k row를 한 번에 mount 하면 DOM이 죽는다. Windowing 으로 viewport 안 ~30개만 render → scroll 시 recycle. 2026 표준은 TanStack Virtual / react-virtuoso, content-visibility CSS, 그리고 React 19의 `<Activity>` (offscreen).

## 매 핵심

### 매 왜 가상화가 필수인가
- DOM node 1개 ≈ 1-5KB memory + layout/paint cost.
- 10k+ row mount → 수백 MB heap, scroll jank, INP > 500ms.
- React reconciliation도 O(n) — fiber tree가 거대해지면 commit이 느려진다.

### 매 windowing 전략
- **Fixed size**: row height 동일 → offset = index × height. 가장 빠름.
- **Variable size**: row 마다 다름 → measured cache + estimated. ResizeObserver 로 동적 측정.
- **Dynamic load**: scroll 끝 도달 시 fetch (infinite scroll) — virtualization 과 결합.

### 매 응용
1. Admin table 100k+ row.
2. Chat history (역방향 virtualization).
3. Image gallery / Pinterest grid.
4. Code editor (Monaco-style line virtualization).

## 💻 패턴

### TanStack Virtual (2026 표준)
```tsx
import { useVirtualizer } from '@tanstack/react-virtual';

function VirtualList({ items }: { items: Row[] }) {
  const parentRef = useRef<HTMLDivElement>(null);
  const virtualizer = useVirtualizer({
    count: items.length,
    getScrollElement: () => parentRef.current,
    estimateSize: () => 48,
    overscan: 5,
  });

  return (
    <div ref={parentRef} className="h-[600px] overflow-auto">
      <div style={{ height: virtualizer.getTotalSize(), position: 'relative' }}>
        {virtualizer.getVirtualItems().map(v => (
          <div
            key={v.key}
            data-index={v.index}
            ref={virtualizer.measureElement}
            style={{
              position: 'absolute',
              top: 0,
              left: 0,
              width: '100%',
              transform: `translateY(${v.start}px)`,
            }}
          >
            {items[v.index].name}
          </div>
        ))}
      </div>
    </div>
  );
}
```

### Variable height with measurement
```tsx
const virtualizer = useVirtualizer({
  count: rows.length,
  getScrollElement: () => parentRef.current,
  estimateSize: () => 80,        // 매 best guess
  measureElement: el => el.getBoundingClientRect().height, // 매 actual measure
  overscan: 8,
});
```

### CSS content-visibility (zero-JS virtualization)
```css
.row {
  content-visibility: auto;
  contain-intrinsic-size: 0 48px; /* 매 placeholder size */
}
```
브라우저가 viewport 밖 element를 자동으로 skip layout/paint. React 없이도 효과.

### Infinite scroll + virtualization
```tsx
const { data, fetchNextPage, hasNextPage } = useInfiniteQuery({
  queryKey: ['rows'],
  queryFn: ({ pageParam = 0 }) => fetchPage(pageParam),
  getNextPageParam: last => last.nextCursor,
});

const allRows = data?.pages.flatMap(p => p.items) ?? [];
const virtualizer = useVirtualizer({ count: allRows.length, /* ... */ });

useEffect(() => {
  const last = virtualizer.getVirtualItems().at(-1);
  if (last && last.index >= allRows.length - 5 && hasNextPage) {
    fetchNextPage();
  }
}, [virtualizer.getVirtualItems()]);
```

### Grid virtualization (2D)
```tsx
const rowVirtualizer = useVirtualizer({ count: rows, /* ... */ });
const colVirtualizer = useVirtualizer({
  horizontal: true,
  count: cols,
  getScrollElement: () => parentRef.current,
  estimateSize: () => 120,
});
// 매 nested loop: rows × cols 의 visible cells only.
```

### React 19 `<Activity>` for tab-like UI
```tsx
<Activity mode={isActive ? 'visible' : 'hidden'}>
  <ExpensiveTab />  {/* 매 hidden 시 unmount X, but no render cost */}
</Activity>
```

### Server-side pagination + cursor
```ts
// 매 절대 client 에 100k row 보내지 마라.
GET /api/rows?cursor=abc123&limit=50
→ { items: [...], nextCursor: 'def456' }
```

## 매 결정 기준
| 상황 | Approach |
|---|---|
| < 100 rows | 매 plain map. Virtualization X. |
| 100-1000 rows, fixed height | content-visibility CSS. |
| 1000+ rows | TanStack Virtual / react-virtuoso. |
| Variable height | measure + estimateSize. |
| Infinite stream | virtualization + cursor pagination. |
| Tab/accordion | React 19 `<Activity>`. |

**기본값**: TanStack Virtual + React Query infinite + content-visibility 보조.

## 🤖 LLM 활용
**언제**: row count > 500, scroll 성능 issue, INP regression.
**언제 X**: static page, 매 작은 list (< 100), SEO-critical content (crawler 가 못 봄).

## ❌ 안티패턴
- **Mount all then hide**: `display: none` 으로 숨겨도 DOM 비용은 낸다.
- **Key as index**: row reorder 시 reconciliation 깨짐 — stable id 사용.
- **Inline measure on every render**: ResizeObserver + cache 필수.
- **No overscan**: scroll 시 빈 영역 보임. overscan 5-10.
- **Animation on virtualized rows**: 매 recycle 시 animation 초기화 — layout id 따로 관리.

## 🧪 검증 / 중복
- Verified (TanStack Virtual docs, Chrome DevTools, web.dev/content-visibility).
- 신뢰도 A.
