This, this and this. I see so much code where threading and caching are thrown around as a solution to a performance and no one ever tests to see if it's actually an improvement. I saw one the other day that used multiple threads to call a micro service which locked execution to a single caller and most of the bottleneck was serialization/deserialization. Making the microservice a library would have been much more performant.
