💡 What: Replaced dynamic property accesses to pageCircle.frame.size.width within the addIndicator loop with a pre-calculated mathematical equivalent based on the predefined radius property.

🎯 Why: Accessing frame.size.width on an SKShapeNode forces an expensive recalculation of its bounding box. Doing this repeatedly within a loop creates unnecessary overhead and stalls layout rendering. By substituting it with radius * 2.0, the visual outcome remains identical while bypassing the performance penalty completely.

📊 Measured Improvement: We were unable to explicitly benchmark this change because the development environment lacks the required Swift/Xcode CLI tools needed to compile or execute Swift benchmarks. However, avoiding SpriteKit bounding box calculations during loops is a widely accepted rendering optimization, reducing CPU overhead during indicator initialization.

Avoids costly `pageCircle.frame.size.width` SpriteKit bounding box recalculations on every iteration inside the loop by substituting it with mathematical equivalent derived from the predefined `radius`.
