Performance

Klerk is designed so that you can achieve low latencies and high read throughput without any extra effort. It is recommended to not care about performance (i.e. optimize for code readability and simplicity) until you know for sure that performance will be a problem. Chances are that you will never run into performance problems, but here are some suggestions if you do:

  • Deploy (more) read-replicas.
  • Don't hang on to read locks longer than necessary (i.e. avoid the readSuspend method).
  • Create your own collections to speed up reading.
