41 - Performance Engineering Lab (Latency, Throughput, Efficiency)

Home: README

World-class engineering includes predictable performance under load.

Performance objectives

  • Define budgets (latency, memory, CPU, query time).
  • Measure before optimizing.
  • Optimize with evidence and rollback safety.

Lab sequence

  1. Establish baseline benchmarks.
  2. Identify top bottlenecks (code + SQL + IO).
  3. Apply targeted optimization passes.
  4. Re-benchmark and compare deltas.
  5. Guard with performance regression tests.

Required outputs

  • Benchmark report before/after.
  • Query profile analysis and tuned variants.
  • Performance runbook with thresholds and actions.
