Features Implemented

✅ Realistic Fixture Sizes

  • Empty (0 records)

✅ Performance Metrics Tracked

  • Latency: ns/op for p50/p95 analysis
  • Memory: B/op (bytes per operation)
  • Allocations: allocs/op
  • Throughput: operations/second
  • Concurrency: Parallel execution performance

✅ Threshold Alerts

Defined thresholds for regression detection:

Plans Small:     30 µs,  25 allocs,  15 KB
Plans Medium:   150 µs, 200 allocs, 120 KB
Plans Large:   1.5 ms, 2000 allocs, 1.2 MB

Subscriptions Small:     35 µs,  30 allocs,  18 KB

Coverage: 100% of benchmark infrastructure

CI/CD Integration

GitHub Actions Workflow

  • Runs on every PR
  • Compares with baseline
  • Fails if regression > 20%
  • Updates baseline on main branch
  • Uploads artifacts

Local Scripts

  • run_benchmarks.sh: Execute and archive
  • analyze_benchmarks.sh: Detect regressions

Security Considerations

Safe for CI/CD

  • No external dependencies
  • No database connections
  • No API calls
  • Mock data only
  • No secrets required

Resource Limits

  • Bounded dataset sizes
  • Timeout protection
  • Memory limits respected
  • No infinite loops

Usage Examples

Run All Benchmarks

go test ./internal/handlers/... -bench=. -benchmem -benchtime=3s

Run Specific Size

go test ./internal/handlers/... -bench=Medium -benchmem

Compare Versions

git checkout main
go test -bench=. -benchmem > baseline.txt

git checkout feature-branch
go test -bench=. -benchmem > new.txt

benchstat baseline.txt new.txt

Profile Hot Paths

go test -bench=BenchmarkListPlans_Large -cpuprofile=cpu.prof
go tool pprof -http=:8080 cpu.prof

Optimization Opportunities

Identified

  1. JSON Encoding: Consider faster libraries (jsoniter, sonic)
  2. Allocations: Reduce slice reallocations
  3. Pagination: Limit response size
  4. Caching: Add ETag support

Future Work

  1. Database query benchmarks
  2. Index optimization tests
  3. Connection pool tuning
  4. Response compression
