+Dev mode no longer pays for React's per-element owner-stack capture: navigation clicks in a large app dropped from ~350ms to ~83ms of main-thread CPU (5.6x prod down to ~1.3x). In exchange `React.captureOwnerStack()` returns no owner frames in dev, which affects React DevTools' owner-stack view and custom error overlays built on that API; set `REFLEX_REACT_OWNER_STACKS=1` to restore them.
