Sample Answer
We started getting dozens of complaints about slow page loads for our dashboard used by 5,000 daily active users. I pulled real user timing metrics and saw median TTFB spiking to 1.2s and frontend scripting adding 800ms. I ran flame charts and server traces, which pointed to a costly DB join and a heavy client-side React render caused by unbatched state updates. I flagged the issue to product and ops, estimated fixes (DB index + cached endpoint = 3 days; frontend memoization + batching = 2 days), and prioritized the backend change first. After deploying a new index and a Redis cache, TTFB dropped 60% and overall page load fell from 3.0s to 1.1s. The frontend optimizations cut CPU time by 55% on low-end devices.
