It Started With Complaints
I work on an HRMS platform and our HR team kept telling me the attendance page was too slow. I ignored it the first couple of times — I thought maybe it was their internet connection or a slow PC. Then my manager asked me about it.
Okay fine. Time to actually look at this.
The attendance API was taking over 1 minute to return data for 6500 employees. One full minute. You could make a coffee and come back and it still wouldn't be done.
