# Windsurf Performance Tuning
## Overview
Optimize Windsurf API performance with caching, batching, and connection pooling.
## Prerequisites
- Windsurf SDK installed
- Understanding of async patterns
- Redis or in-memory cache available (optional)
- Performance monitoring in place
## Latency Benchmarks
| Operation | P50 | P95 | P99 |
|-----------|-----|-----|-----|
| Read | 50ms | 150ms | 300ms |
| Write | 100ms | 250ms | 500ms |
| List | 75ms | 200ms | 400ms |
## Caching Strategy
### Response Caching
```typescript
import { LRUCache } from 'lru-cache';
const cache = new LRUCache({
max: 1000,
ttl: 60000, // 1 minute
updateAgeOnGet: true,
});
async function cachedWindsurfRequest(
key: string,
fetcher: () => Promise,
ttl?: number
): Promise {
const cached = cache.get(key);
if (cached) return cached as T;
const result = await fetcher();
cache.set(key, result, { ttl });
return result;
}
```
### Redis Caching (Distributed)
```typescript
import Redis from 'ioredis';
const redis = new Redis(process.env.REDIS_URL);
async function cachedWithRedis(
key: string,
fetcher: () => Promise,
ttlSeconds = 60
): Promise {
const cached = await redis.get(key);
if (cached) return JSON.parse(cached);
const result = await fetcher();
await redis.setex(key, ttlSeconds, JSON.stringify(result));
return result;
}
```
## Request Batching
```typescript
import DataLoader from 'dataloader';
const windsurfLoader = new DataLoader(
async (ids) => {
// Batch fetch from Windsurf
const results = await windsurfClient.batchGet(ids);
return ids.map(id => results.find(r => r.id === id) || null);
},
{
maxBatchSize: 100,
batchScheduleFn: callback => setTimeout(callback, 10),
}
);
// Usage - automatically batched
const [item1, item2, item3] = await Promise.all([
windsurfLoader.load('id-1'),
windsurfLoader.load('id-2'),
windsurfLoader.load('id-3'),
]);
```
## Connection Optimization
```typescript
import { Agent } from 'https';
// Keep-alive connection pooling
const agent = new Agent({
keepAlive: true,
maxSockets: 10,
maxFreeSockets: 5,
timeout: 30000,
});
const client = new WindsurfClient({
apiKey: process.env.WINDSURF_API_KEY!,
httpAgent: agent,
});
```
## Pagination Optimization
```typescript
async function* paginatedWindsurfList(
fetcher: (cursor?: string) => Promise<{ data: T[]; nextCursor?: string }>
): AsyncGenerator {
let cursor: string | undefined;
do {
const { data, nextCursor } = await fetcher(cursor);
for (const item of data) {
yield item;
}
cursor = nextCursor;
} while (cursor);
}
// Usage
for await (const item of paginatedWindsurfList(cursor =>
windsurfClient.list({ cursor, limit: 100 })
)) {
await process(item);
}
```
## Performance Monitoring
```typescript
async function measuredWindsurfCall(
operation: string,
fn: () => Promise
): Promise {
const start = performance.now();
try {
const result = await fn();
const duration = performance.now() - start;
console.log({ operation, duration, status: 'success' });
return result;
} catch (error) {
const duration = performance.now() - start;
console.error({ operation, duration, status: 'error', error });
throw error;
}
}
```
## Instructions
### Step 1: Establish Baseline
Measure current latency for critical Windsurf operations.
### Step 2: Implement Caching
Add response caching for frequently accessed data.
### Step 3: Enable Batching
Use DataLoader or similar for automatic request batching.
### Step 4: Optimize Connections
Configure connection pooling with keep-alive.
## Output
- Reduced API latency
- Caching layer implemented
- Request batching enabled
- Connection pooling configured
## Error Handling
| Issue | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| Cache miss storm | TTL expired | Use stale-while-revalidate |
| Batch timeout | Too many items | Reduce batch size |
| Connection exhausted | No pooling | Configure max sockets |
| Memory pressure | Cache too large | Set max cache entries |
## Examples
### Quick Performance Wrapper
```typescript
const withPerformance = (name: string, fn: () => Promise) =>
measuredWindsurfCall(name, () =>
cachedWindsurfRequest(`cache:${name}`, fn)
);
```
