  - Shapes created at (0,0) and then translated
  - Speedup: +2% on geometries

### 🔧 Changes (Phase 1)

#### src/gerbyx/parser.py
- Modified `_handle_g_code()` to use `_G_CODE_PATTERN.findall()`
- Modified `_handle_coordinates_and_dcode()` to use `_COORD_PATTERN.finditer()`
- Optimized coordinate parsing with a single loop instead of 4 separate regexes

#### src/gerbyx/processor.py
- Modified `_create_flashed_shape()` to create shapes at the origin
- Added translate to position cached shapes
- Optimized `geometries` property with early return

### 📊 Performance (Phase 1)
- Medium file (272KB): 3,403ms → 2,942ms (+14%)
- Tokenization: 166ms → 163ms (+2%)
- Parsing: 1,794ms → 1,474ms (+18%)
- Geometries: 1,443ms → 1,305ms (+10%)

### ⚠️ Notes (Phase 1)
- Small files (<1KB): 5ms overhead (13ms → 18ms)
- Acceptable overhead for benefits on medium/large files

---

## [0.9.0] - 2024 - BASELINE

### 📊 Performance Baseline
- Small file (0.6KB): 13ms
