Module ring_buffer 

Ring buffer implementations for streaming data processing

This module provides two distinct ring buffer implementations:

• LocalRingBuffer: Single-threaded only, no synchronization, maximum performance
• RingBuffer: Thread-safe with Arc<RwLock> synchronization, safe for concurrent access

Performance Characteristics

Both implementations provide:

• O(1) push and pop operations
• O(k) sliding window operations (k = window size)
• Bounded capacity with automatic overwrite of oldest elements
• Direct indexed access for efficient windowing

LocalRingBuffer advantages:

• No synchronization overhead
• ~2x faster than thread-safe variant
• Optimal for single-threaded streaming algorithms

RingBuffer advantages:

• Thread-safe with multiple readers/writers
• Suitable for concurrent streaming pipelines
