AI Coding Tool Update: Memory Leaks Fixed, Long Session Stalls Resolved

Version 2.1.208 fixed memory leak batches, reduced transcript sizes by up to 79x, and sped up tool rounds by 7x in MCP-heavy sessions. The subsequent 2.1.216 release killed the quadratic slowdown that previously caused long sessions to stall.
