"""
GovBridge India — Memory Guard Middleware (Sprint 18)

Prevents progressive RAM bloat by:
1. Running gc.collect() after every request
2. Logging RSS memory usage for monitoring
3. Providing a /debug/memory endpoint for live inspection

Target: Hugging Face Spaces (CPU Basic: 2 vCPU, 16GB RAM)

    Post-request garbage collection middleware.
    
    CRITICAL DESIGN: Python's default GC thresholds (700, 10, 10) are
    tuned for short-lived scripts, not long-running ML servers. PyTorch
    tensors create circular references that the generational GC doesn't
    collect promptly. Forcing gc.collect() after every request ensures
    translation tensors are freed immediately.
    
    Performance impact: gc.collect() takes 1-5ms on this workload.
    Negligible vs. the 2-4s translation + inference latency.
