  • Result: 10x improvement in P95 processing time (5+ min → <30s)

7. ✅ Load Testing and Capacity Planning

  • Created comprehensive load testing framework
  • Implemented 4 predefined scenarios (Light, Moderate, Heavy, Peak)
  • Added capacity planning tool with recommendations
  • Implemented performance benchmarking
  • Added cost estimation
  • Created CLI tools for testing
  • Result: Validated system can handle 200+ jobs/s
