• Fix player memory reporting in performance sidebar
• Fixed flickering in image panel when switching between selected and unselected calibration topics

Added

• Added the memory size of preloaded and buffered messages to the Foxglove – Playback Performance panel

Changed

• Introduced a new downsampling algorithm to the State Transitions panel to improve performance
• Improved memory estimation to make OOM crashes less likely
• Improved performance when reading local MCAP files

Fixed

• Fixed unnecessary preloading in the Gauge and Indicator panels
• Fixed an issue where plotting by header stamp would result in misleading output in the Plot panel
• Fixed an issue where downsampled data points could appear out of order in the Plot panel
• Fixed 3D panel to not crash when there are errors while adding transforms

• Fixed an unmatched frameId error when switching the calibration topic to None from a nonexistent topic

Added

• Added more Japanese translations
