Checklist
- •Reproduce workload under representative traffic and datasets.
- •Capture traces, flame graphs, and key metrics (latency, throughput, memory).
- •Identify top offenders and quantify potential wins.
- •Evaluate caching, batching, and algorithmic options with trade-offs.
- •Recommend rollout plus monitoring signals to confirm impact.
Prompts
- •"Break down the request lifecycle and pinpoint where time is spent."
- •"Design a canary or feature flag strategy to derisk the optimization."
Resources
- •Profiling quickstart (Chrome DevTools, pprof, perf).
- •Performance budget template.
