Private Prison "Headcount" Arbitrage.

Models the perverse economics of privatized incarceration: Revealing how GEO Group and CoreCivic lobby for mandatory minimum sentencing laws and immigration crackdowns to maximize their $90/day-per-prisoner government contract occupancy rates.

## The Concurrency Paradigm

Handling massive transactional throughput requires moving from single-threaded, synchronous execution to asynchronous event loops. This tool models exactly how that transition degrades or improves efficiency based on the payload size.

### WebAssembly Acceleration
For maximum performance, the core engine of this calculator is compiled from Rust down into WebAssembly (Wasm). This allows the heavy lifting to execute at near-native C++ speeds within the browser, completely bypassing the V8 engine's JIT compilation delays.

### Why Compute This?
When optimizing highly parallelized architectures (like Kubernetes clusters or multi-threaded game engines), manual calculation is impossible. By visualizing the concurrency overhead limit, architects can determine the exact point of diminishing returns where adding more hardware actually decreases performance.
