Tradeoff curves

Where a design knob has a cost that bends — energy, latency, memory — against an interval or size, the curve and its knee live here, so the chosen default is traceable to a shape rather than a guess.

Docs index: ../README.md. Project overview: ../../README.md.

Curve What it decides
wifi-auto-sync.md auto_sync interval vs Wi-Fi energy (a 1/T hyperbola) — why the default is 10 min and opportunistic, not a wall-clock timer.
epd-refresh-latency.md E-ink refresh latency vs rows driven — the full / full-area-partial / windowed-Y cost model behind typing responsiveness and the boot splash→editor swap.
