Latency And Throughput Defaults

Pack: nodejs Parent skill: Node.js API Latency And Throughput Source: nodejs/nodejs-api-latency-and-throughput/references/latency-and-throughput-defaults.md

  • per-request client construction
  • repeated config or schema parsing
  • N+1 remote calls
  • oversized response payloads
  • unbounded parallel work
  1. tail latency
  2. repeated setup cost
  3. I/O amplification
  4. bounded concurrency
  5. CPU hotspots

Do not trade observability, cancellation, and correctness for benchmark theater.
