Overview

Develop a comprehensive performance optimization program that identifies bottlenecks, implements improvements, and maintains high performance standards.

Learning objectives

  • Establish performance baselines
  • Identify optimization opportunities
  • Implement improvements systematically
  • Create performance culture

Instructions

Build performance program:

1. Measure current performance 2. Identify bottlenecks 3. Prioritize optimizations 4. Implement improvements 5. Monitor and maintain

Steps

1

Performance audit

25 minutes

Baseline current performance metrics

2

Bottleneck analysis

25 minutes

Identify performance constraints

3

Optimization planning

20 minutes

Prioritize improvement areas

4

Implementation strategy

25 minutes

Execute performance improvements

5

Monitoring setup

5 minutes

Build performance tracking

Pro tips

  • Focus on user-perceived performance
  • Use performance budgets
  • Optimize the critical path first
  • Make performance visible

Example outcome

Performance program achieving 50% latency reduction, 3x throughput increase, and maintaining sub-100ms p99 response times.
