## Extract to Memoized Components
Extract expensive work into memoized components to enable early returns before computation.
**Incorrect (computes avatar even when loading):**
```tsx
function Profile({ user, loading }: Props) {
const avatar = useMemo(() => {
const id = computeAvatarId(user);
return <Avatar id={id} />;
}, [user]);
if (loading) return <Skeleton />;
return <div>{avatar}</div>;
}
```
**Correct (skips computation when loading):**
```tsx
const UserAvatar = memo(function UserAvatar({ user }: { user: User }) {
const id = useMemo(() => computeAvatarId(user), [user]);
return <Avatar id={id} />;
});
function Profile({ user, loading }: Props) {
if (loading) return <Skeleton />;
return (
<div>
<UserAvatar user={user} />
</div>
);
}
```
**Note:** If your project has [React Compiler](https://react.dev/learn/react-compiler) enabled, manual memoization with `memo()` and `useMemo()` is not necessary. The compiler automatically optimizes re-renders.
