Three additions from this session's work: 1. Django ORM gotcha — PayrollAdjustment project double-attribution. Documents the Coalesce pattern that solved the Apr 2026 perf-pass double-count bug on Overtime adjustments. 2. Payroll dashboard query-count baselines — target ranges for / and the four /payroll/ tabs after the perf pass, plus the "spotting a regression" heuristic (>50% jump = N+1 reintroduced). 3. Profiling locally — Django Debug Toolbar — what it is, how it's triple-gated, how to use it for N+1 hunting. Flags that the package is already in requirements.txt so future sessions don't need to install it. Net: +35 lines, three new sections, no deletions.
