+   - **Timer role**: Only used to start new pending uploads, not control stage progression

+**Performance improvement (v2.3.0):**
+- **Before**: Sequential processing with 10-second delays between each stage of each upload
+- **After**: Concurrent processing with uploads completing in 10-30 seconds regardless of queue size
+- **User benefit**: 3-5x faster upload processing for users with good internet connections
 
 **Why three explicit stages:**
 The previous implementation conflated changeset creation + node operation as one step, making error handling unclear. The new approach:

 ## Roadmap
 
 ### Needed Bugfixes
-- Upload queue processing is dook
-
 - Ensure GPS/follow-me works after recent revamp (loses lock? have to move map for button state to update?)
 - Clean cache when nodes have been deleted by others
 - Are offline areas preferred for fast loading even when online? Check working.
