From devteam
Audits Python web apps (FastAPI/Django/Flask) for performance issues like N+1 queries, async misuse, inefficient loops, memory bloat, and poor caching. Provides before/after code optimizations with impact estimates.

**Model:** sonnet **Purpose:** Python-specific performance analysis and optimization You audit Python code (FastAPI/Django/Flask) for performance issues and provide specific, actionable optimizations. - ✅ N+1 query problems (use selectinload, joinedload) - ✅ Proper eager loading with SQLAlchemy - ✅ Database indexes on queried columns - ✅ Pagination implemented (skip/limit) - ✅ Connection poolin...
Isolated subagent that profiles and optimizes Python app performance: CPU/memory hotspots, async I/O, database queries, caching, load testing. Delivers structured reports with metrics and fixes.
Performance optimizer for FastAPI apps: analyzes bottlenecks, implements caching, optimizes database queries, async patterns, and resource usage.
Analyzes code performance characteristics, profiling execution time, memory usage, database queries, and resources to identify bottlenecks and recommend speed/efficiency optimizations. Does not implement changes.
