Performance Optimization Techniques for Backend Systems: Replacing Protobuf with C++ Classes, Cache‑Friendly Structures, jemalloc, and Lock‑Free Data Structures
The article presents practical backend performance optimization methods—including substituting Protobuf with native C++ classes, employing cache‑friendly data structures, integrating jemalloc/tcmalloc, using lock‑free double‑buffer designs, and tailoring data formats—to achieve up to three‑fold speed improvements and significant latency reductions.
