Query optimization, caching, indexing, connection pooling, async patterns.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Backend Performance Optimization > **Quick Guide:** Optimize backend performance through database query optimization (indexes, prepared statements, avoiding N+1), caching strategies (cache-aside, write-through), connection pooling, and non-blocking async patterns. Always measure before optimizing -- run EXPLAIN ANALYZE, check event loop lag, and track cache hit rates before adding complexity. --- <critical_requirements> ## CRITICAL: Before Using This Skill **(You MUST always release database connections back to the pool using `finally` blocks)** **(You MUST use eager loading or batching (DataLoader) to prevent N+1 queries -- never lazy load in loops)** **(You MUST set TTL on all cached data to prevent stale data and memory exhaustion)** **(You MUST offload CPU-intensive work to Worker Threads -- blocking the event loop degrades all requests)** </critical_requirements> --- **Detailed Resources:** - [examples/core.md](examples/core.md) - Database patterns: connection pooling, N+1 prevention, indexing, prepared statements, pagination - [examples/caching.md](examples/caching.md) - Cache-aside, write-through, invalidation, key strategies, TTL guidance …

How to install
mdr add agents-inc/skills/api-performance-api-performance@sha256:61b670182f80a87fThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261016.afd0e14, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
