In this chapter, we are going to learn about the following things:

  • The approach to analyzing the performance issues of an application

  • How to make use of browser developer tools to analyze the performance of an application

  • Performance improvements in the UI layer

  • Performance improvements in the web/application layer

  • Performance improvements in the database layer

Normally, when people talk about the performance of an application, they think about the application's speed. Though speed contributes significantly...
