Performance analysis in software involves evaluating how well a system or application performs under specific conditions. Key aspects include:

• Metrics: Measuring response time, throughput, resource usage (CPU, memory, etc.), and scalability.

• Profiling: Identifying bottlenecks and inefficiencies by analyzing how resources are consumed during execution.

• Benchmarking: Comparing performance against standards or similar systems to assess effectiveness.

• Monitoring: Continuously observing system performance in real-time to detect issues early.

• Optimization: Making adjustments to improve performance, such as code refactoring, caching, or load balancing.

The goal is to ensure that software meets performance requirements and provides a good user experience.
