# Performance Optimization Plan

## 🎯 **Objective**

Optimize apt-ostree performance to achieve comparable or better performance than rpm-ostree while maintaining full compatibility and functionality.

## 📊 **Performance Targets**

### **Command Response Times**
- **Status command**: < 100ms
- **Package search**: < 500ms for 1000+ packages
- **System upgrade**: < 30s for standard updates
- **Package installation**: < 10s for single package
- **Deployment operations**: < 60s for full deployment

### **Resource Usage**
- **Memory**: < 100MB peak usage
- **CPU**: < 50% during heavy operations
- **Disk I/O**: Optimized for minimal seeks
- **Network**: Efficient package downloads

### **Scalability**
- **Package count**: Support 10,000+ packages efficiently
- **Concurrent operations**: Handle 5+ simultaneous transactions
- **Large deployments**: Manage 100GB+ system images

## 🔍 **Performance Analysis Areas**

### **1. Critical Paths**
- **Package resolution**: Dependency calculation and conflict resolution
- **OSTree operations**: Commit creation, checkout, and deployment
- **APT integration**: Package cache management and downloads
- **Transaction processing**: Atomic operation coordination

### **2. Bottlenecks**
- **File I/O**: OSTree repository access and package extraction
- **Network**: Package repository synchronization
- **Memory**: Large package metadata handling
- **CPU**: Complex dependency resolution algorithms

### **3. Optimization Opportunities**
- **Caching**: Intelligent caching of frequently accessed data
- **Parallelization**: Concurrent execution of independent operations
- **Lazy loading**: Defer non-critical operations
- **Compression**: Efficient data storage and transfer

## 🚀 **Optimization Strategies**

### **1. Caching Layer**
```rust
// Package metadata cache
pub struct PackageCache {
    metadata: LruCache<String, PackageInfo>,
    dependencies: LruCache<String, Vec<String>>,
    conflicts: LruCache<String, Vec<String>>,
}

// OSTree commit cache
pub struct CommitCache {
    commits: LruCache<String, CommitInfo>,
    trees: LruCache<String, TreeInfo>,
}
```

### **2. Parallel Processing**
```rust
// Concurrent package operations
pub async fn install_packages_parallel(
    packages: Vec<String>,
    max_concurrent: usize,
) -> AptOstreeResult<()> {
    let chunks: Vec<Vec<String>> = packages
        .chunks(max_concurrent)
        .map(|chunk| chunk.to_vec())
        .collect();
    
    let futures: Vec<_> = chunks
        .into_iter()
        .map(|chunk| install_package_chunk(chunk))
        .collect();
    
    futures::future::join_all(futures).await;
    Ok(())
}
```

### **3. Lazy Loading**
```rust
// Lazy package information loading
pub struct LazyPackageInfo {
    name: String,
    loaded: Arc<RwLock<bool>>,
    info: Arc<RwLock<Option<PackageInfo>>>,
}

impl LazyPackageInfo {
    pub async fn get_info(&self) -> AptOstreeResult<PackageInfo> {
        let mut loaded = self.loaded.write().await;
        if !*loaded {
            let info = self.load_package_info(&self.name).await?;
            *self.info.write().await = Some(info.clone());
            *loaded = true;
            Ok(info)
        } else {
            Ok(self.info.read().await.clone().unwrap())
        }
    }
}
```

### **4. Memory Management**
```rust
// Efficient memory usage
pub struct MemoryPool {
    buffers: Vec<Vec<u8>>,
    max_size: usize,
    current_size: AtomicUsize,
}

impl MemoryPool {
    pub fn get_buffer(&self, size: usize) -> Option<Vec<u8>> {
        if self.current_size.load(Ordering::Relaxed) + size <= self.max_size {
            self.current_size.fetch_add(size, Ordering::Relaxed);
            Some(vec![0; size])
        } else {
            None
        }
    }
}
```

## 📈 **Performance Monitoring**

### **1. Metrics Collection**
```rust
// Performance metrics
pub struct PerformanceMetrics {
    command_times: HashMap<String, Vec<Duration>>,
    memory_usage: Vec<MemorySnapshot>,
    cpu_usage: Vec<CpuSnapshot>,
    io_operations: Vec<IoOperation>,
}

impl PerformanceMetrics {
    pub fn record_command_time(&mut self, command: &str, duration: Duration) {
        self.command_times
            .entry(command.to_string())
            .or_insert_with(Vec::new)
            .push(duration);
    }
}
```

### **2. Profiling Tools**
- **CPU profiling**: Identify hot paths and bottlenecks
- **Memory profiling**: Track memory allocation patterns
- **I/O profiling**: Monitor disk and network operations
- **Network profiling**: Analyze package download performance

### **3. Benchmarking Suite**
```rust
// Performance benchmarks
#[cfg(test)]
mod benchmarks {
    use criterion::{black_box, criterion_group, criterion_main, Criterion};
    
    fn benchmark_package_search(c: &mut Criterion) {
        c.bench_function("package_search_1000", |b| {
            b.iter(|| {
                let manager = AptManager::new();
                black_box(manager.search_packages("test"))
            })
        });
    }
    
    criterion_group!(benches, benchmark_package_search);
    criterion_main!(benches);
}
```
