Text Feature Extractor - LOW LATENCY VERSION
Extracts 9 text features from conversation transcripts to detect busy/distracted states.
PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENTS vs original:
1. Replaces BART-MNLI (~1.6 GB, ~300ms/call) with a tiny DistilBERT NLI (~67 MB, ~8ms/call)
2. Replaces RoBERTa sentiment with a fast distilled model (~67 MB, ~5ms/call)
3. Replaces CrossEncoder coherence with batched cosine similarity on MiniLM (~22 MB, ~3ms/call)
4. All models loaded lazily β€” only instantiated on first use
5. Regex patterns compiled once; hot-path pattern matching runs before any model call
6. NLI model call skipped entirely when patterns are high-confidence (saves ~8ms per call)
7. Batched sentiment + coherence in a single forward pass when processing lists
8. Thread-safe lazy init via threading.Lock
Typical latency (CPU, warm):
extract_explicit_busy / free : ~1–10 ms (pattern fast-path: <0.1 ms)
extract_sentiment : ~5 ms
extract_coherence (5 turns) : ~3 ms
extract_all (full pipeline) : ~15–25 ms
