+    Call this from components that need optimized network performance for streaming
+    or high-throughput data transfer. This enables high performance mode which
+    configures both lwip TCP settings and WiFi driver settings for improved
+    network performance.
+
+    Settings applied (ESP-IDF only):
+    - lwip: Larger TCP buffers, windows, and mailbox sizes
+    - WiFi: Increased RX/TX buffers, AMPDU aggregation, PSRAM allocation (set by wifi component)
+
+    Configuration is PSRAM-aware:
+    - With PSRAM guaranteed: Aggressive settings (512 RX buffers, 512KB TCP windows)
