Aggressive-resize vs. Window-size persistence for multi-client sessions

In a tmux environment where multiple clients attach to a single shared session, managing window dimensions across different terminal emulator sizes creates a conflict between visibility and layout stability.

By default, tmux adjusts the window size to the smallest client currently attached. This prevents text clipping for the smaller terminal but can cause unexpected layout shifts for users on larger displays. Enabling the aggressive-resize option modifies this behavior by recalculating the size for each client based on the windows they are currently viewing.

When designing a shared monitoring dashboard accessed by teams with varying screen resolutions, there is a trade-off between maintaining a consistent global view and optimizing the local viewport for each user.

• Does aggressive-resize introduce significant overhead when switching between windows in sessions with many attached clients?
• Under what specific conditions does aggressive-resize fail to prevent clipping compared to the default resizing behavior?
