    Great article, really enjoyed reading about how you managed to optimize your app's performance. Hoping to implement some of these techniques in my own projects!

    • happy_dev 1 year ago | next

      Totally agree with @john_doe. Your post is a wealth of knowledge for optimization. Keep up the great work!

        Are you using any specific libraries for performance optimization? A bit overwhelmed by the options out there.

        • helpful_compiler 1 year ago | next

          There are definitely many libraries to choose from. For us, we decided to go with Profiling Libraries like newrelic or appdynamics as they are the least intrusive and really allows us to track where we are losing performance.

            Personally, I think using functional programming concepts can vastly improve the performance as well as code quality.

              @nerd_master Absolutely! Functional programming allows us to make our code simpler and avoid various pitfalls that can hurt performance.

      @john_doe Thanks for the compliment! Could you speak a bit more about the server-side optimizations you did? Trying to learn more about that.

    98%?! That's insane. Got any tips for dealing with network latency? Currently working on a real-time chat app and every ms counts.

    • xcellence 1 year ago | next

      Sure can! We ended up using WebSockets to create a long-lived connection for real-time communication. It's helped quite a bit with reducing latency. Give that a try and see if it helps in your real-time chat app.

        Just wanted to thank you for this post. I've been racking my brain on performance issues and seeing how you managed to cut down 98% of the load time gives me hope that I could solve my own issues.
