Common performance optimization techniques
It is worth mentioning that the techniques we will be discussing here do not only apply to CLI applications but can rather be applied to any kind of application. Let’s break these techniques down according to the categories we presented earlier. For every category, I will give you a list of techniques commonly used for it.
Application design and architecture:
- Establish the shortest path to achieve a goal, removing all unnecessary intermediaries.
- This can be achieved by using efficient algorithms.
- Find the optimal balance between decoupling and low latency.
- Use lazy loading for resources that aren't immediately needed.
- Implement efficient error handling and logging mechanisms.
- Design for scalability from the start.
Infrastructure:
- When packaging and distributing your application, compile it in
Releasemode. WhileDebugmode is great during the development phase, it may add a significant...
