#### CLI Command Examples
```bash
# Enhanced batch processing with workers
img-to-text batch ./examples/ --output-dir ./results --workers 8

# With progress tracking
img-to-text batch ./examples/ --workers 8 --progress

# Flexible input syntax
img-to-text batch -i ./images/ -o ./output/ -w 4
```

## Migration Guide

### Upgrading from v1.x to v2.x

#### Breaking Changes
- **Configuration**: Some configuration options have been renamed for clarity
- **API**: New methods added, existing methods enhanced with additional options
- **Dependencies**: New performance dependencies added (automatically installed)

#### New Configuration Options
```javascript
// v1.x
const analyzer = new ImageToText({
  enableOCR: true,
  outputFormat: 'json'
});

// v2.x (enhanced)
const analyzer = new ImageToText({
  // All v1.x options still supported
  enableOCR: true,
  outputFormat: 'json',
  
  // New performance options
  enablePerformanceOptimization: true,
  enableAdaptiveProcessing: true,
  enableMemoryPooling: true,
  enableIntelligentCaching: true,
  maxConcurrentWorkers: 8,
  enableStreamProcessing: true
});
```

#### New Methods
```javascript
// Performance optimization
const result = await analyzer.analyzeWithOptimization(image);

// Performance reporting
const report = analyzer.getPerformanceReport();

// Cache management
await analyzer.clearCache();
```

#### Enhanced CLI
```bash
# v1.x
img-to-text analyze image.png --format json

# v2.x (enhanced with performance options)
img-to-text analyze image.png --format json --workers 8 --enable-cache --adaptive
img-to-text perf image.png --performance-report
img-to-text batch ./images/ --stream --workers 8
```

### Backward Compatibility
- All v1.x APIs remain functional
- Configuration options are additive
- CLI commands are backward compatible
- Output formats unchanged (enhanced with additional data)
