Re:Algos and Code Performance: Your Code Works but Can It Ha... by mannyv on Sunday July 27, 2025 @01:12AM (#44699032)
Optimization can't fix a bad design.

You have to design it to perform; optimization speeds up hotspots in the design. But no optimization will make your app scalable or perform well under load. You can throw money at it by scaling vertically or horizontally, but that won't fix bad design (though it'll keep things going).
