Checkout p95 jumped after today's deploy. Find the cause and propose a fix.
Assistant
The checkout p95 regression comes from the inventory lookup added in the 14:10 deploy.
reserveInventory now runs one query per line item, so a 30-item cart issues 30 round trips. I batched the lookup into a single WHERE sku = ANY($1) query.
- p95 on the load test dropped from 2.4s to 310ms.
- Added a regression test that fails if a cart issues more than one inventory query.
- Opened PR #482 with the fix; CI is green.

Did the batching change affect cart totals or stock reservation behavior?
Assistant
No change to totals or reservation semantics. The batched query returns the same rows, and I kept the per-SKU quantity check in reserveInventory.
- Ran the cart suite: 64 passed, 0 failed.
- Out-of-stock items still fail the whole reservation, same as before.

Write a PR comment so reviewers can reproduce the benchmark.

Draft PR comment for #482:
Repro:
bun run bench:checkout --items 30Before: p50 1.1s, p95 2.4s. After: p50 140ms, p95 310ms. The regression test fails if a cart issues more than one inventory query.

Is it safe to ship today?
Assistant
Yes. CI is green and the change is isolated to reserveInventory. I would ship it before the evening traffic peak and watch the p95 panel for 30 minutes.
