Subject: [PATCH] perf(03-01): optimize ResourceMonitor performance

- Added caching for GPU info to avoid repeated pynvml initialization
- Added pynvml failure tracking to skip repeated failed attempts
- Optimized CPU measurement interval from 1.0s to 0.05s
- Reduced monitoring overhead from ~1000ms to ~50ms per call
- Maintained accuracy while significantly improving performance
