# traefik-0003 — runtime PopulateUsedBy entryPoints slices.Contains O(R×M×E) config load

## Ecosystem
traefik (Go)

## Severity
MEDIUM — config reload path; scales poorly with many routers + entry points

## Location
- `pkg/config/runtime/runtime_http.go`  function `PopulateUsedBy`
- `pkg/config/runtime/runtime_tcp.go`   function `PopulateUsedBy`
- `pkg/config/runtime/runtime_udp.go`   function `PopulateUsedBy`

## Description
All three `PopulateUsedBy` functions have the same pattern:

```go
for rtName, rt := range c.Routers {           // O(R) outer: R routers
    for _, entryPointName := range rt.EntryPoints { // O(M) middle: M EPs per router
        if !slices.Contains(entryPoints, entryPointName) { // O(E) inner scan
            ...
        }
    }
}
```

`entryPoints` is a `[]string` passed in, containing all configured entry
point names.  The `slices.Contains` call does a linear scan of E names
for every (router, entryPoint) pair.

Complexity: O(R × M × E) per config reload.

In large Kubernetes deployments: R=1000 routers, M=3 entry points each,
E=20 entry points → 60,000 linear comparisons per reload.

Fix: pre-build `entryPointsSet := make(map[string]bool)` from the
`entryPoints` slice before the outer loop.  Each lookup becomes O(1).

## CWE
CWE-407: Inefficient Algorithmic Complexity

## Fix (all three files, same pattern)
```go
// Pre-build O(1) lookup set before the loop.
entryPointsSet := make(map[string]bool, len(entryPoints))
for _, ep := range entryPoints {
    entryPointsSet[ep] = true
}

for rtName, rt := range c.Routers {
    for _, entryPointName := range rt.EntryPoints {
        if !entryPointsSet[entryPointName] {  // O(1)
            rt.AddError(...)
            continue
        }
        ...
    }
}
```

## Speedup
E=20 entry points: 20x reduction in inner work per config reload.
