Q:

Restrict vue/vuex reactivity

Let's assume we have some array of objects, and these objects never change. For example, that may be search results, received from google maps places api - every result is rather complex object with id, title, address, coordinates, photos and a bunch of other properties and methods.
We want to use vue/vuex to show search results on the map. If some new results are pushed to the store, we want to draw their markers on the map. If some result is deleted, we want to remove its marker. But internally every result never changes.
Is there any way to tell vue to track the array (push, splice, etc), but not to go deeper and do not track any of its element's properties? 
For now I can imagine only some ugly data split - keep the array of ids in vue and have separate cache-by-id outside of the store. I'm looking for a more elegant solution (like knockout.js observableArray).

A:

You can use Object.freeze() on those objects. This comes with a (really tiny!) performance hit, but it should be negligible if you don't add hundreds or thousands of objects at once.
edit: Alternatively, you could freeze the array (much better performance) which will make Vue skip "reactifying" its contents.
And when you need to add objects to that array, build a new one to replace the old one with:
state.searchResults = Object.freeze(state.searchResults.concat([item]))

That would be quite cheap even for bigger arrays.
