1. Production Architecture: Zero-Copy WebSocket Read/Write Pumps, Bounded Worker Pools & Redis/NATS Fanout in Go

package realtime

import "sync"

type HubShard struct {
	mu      sync.RWMutex
	clients map[string]chan []byte
}

func (s *HubShard) Broadcast(msg []byte) {
	s.mu.RLock()
	defer s.mu.RUnlock()
	for _, ch := range s.clients {
		select {
		case ch <- msg:
		default:
			// Drop or disconnect slow consumer without blocking the shard
		}
	}
}

2. Core Architectural Guarantees

• Sharded Lock-Free Connection Maps: Partitioning active clients across 64–256 shards to eliminate `sync.RWMutex` contention during broadcast bursts.
• Non-Blocking Slow-Consumer Eviction: Using buffered channels with `select/default` backpressure so a single stalled mobile connection never blocks other users.
• Horizontal Pub/Sub Fanout: Synchronizing room broadcasts across stateless Go pods via Redis Cluster Pub/Sub or NATS.
