Performance Optimization Guide 🚀

Key Metrics for Performance Evaluation

When optimizing server performance, focus on these critical metrics:

• 📈 Response Time: Average time to process requests (e.g., < 200ms for APIs)
• 📊 Throughput: Requests handled per second (RPS)
• ⚡ Latency: Time between request arrival and first byte sent
• 🧠 CPU/Memory Usage: Monitor resource consumption during peak loads

💡 Tip: Use tools like Performance_Monitoring_Tool to track these metrics in real-time.

Optimization Strategies 🛠️

1. Caching Mechanisms

   • Implement Redis or Memcached for frequent data access
   • Use browser caching via HTTP headers

2. Database Indexing

   • Optimize query performance with proper indexing
   • Avoid N+1 query problems in ORM frameworks

3. Load Balancing

   • Distribute traffic across multiple servers
   • Example: Nginx or HAProxy setup

4. Code Efficiency

   • Reduce time complexity of algorithms
   • Minimize synchronous operations
