## Cache Optimization
### Cache Configuration
Configure cache size and behavior using the builder pattern:
```rust
use auto_discovery::config::{CacheConfig, DiscoveryConfig};
use std::time::Duration;
let cache_config = CacheConfig::builder()
.max_entries(10_000) // Maximum services to cache
.ttl(Duration::from_secs(600)) // Cache TTL (10 minutes)
.negative_ttl(Duration::from_secs(60)) // Negative cache TTL
.prefetch_threshold(0.8) // Refresh at 80% TTL
.build();
let config = DiscoveryConfig::builder()
.cache_config(cache_config)
.build();
```
### Cache Strategies
Choose the right caching strategy based on your environment:
#### High-Traffic Production
```rust
let cache_config = CacheConfig::builder()
.max_entries(50_000)
.ttl(Duration::from_secs(1800)) // 30 minutes
.prefetch_threshold(0.8)
.enable_compression(true) // Compress cache entries
.persistence_path(Some("/var/cache/autodiscovery"))
.build();
```
#### Development/Testing
```rust
let cache_config = CacheConfig::builder()
.max_entries(1_000)
.ttl(Duration::from_secs(300)) // 5 minutes
.prefetch_threshold(0.9)
.enable_compression(false)
.build();
```
## Network Configuration
### Connection Management
```rust
use auto_discovery::config::NetworkConfig;
let network_config = NetworkConfig::builder()
.dns_pool_size(20)
.tcp_pool_size(50)
.udp_buffer_size(8192)
.tcp_keepalive(Duration::from_secs(60))
.tcp_nodelay(true)
.build();
```
### Protocol-Specific Tuning
#### DNS-SD
```rust
let dns_config = DnsConfig::builder()
.timeout(Duration::from_secs(5))
.retry_count(2)
.tcp_fallback(true) // Use TCP on UDP failure
.edns0_enabled(true) // Enable EDNS0
.build();
```
#### mDNS
```rust
let mdns_config = MdnsConfig::builder()
.query_interval(Duration::from_secs(10))
.ttl(Duration::from_secs(60))
.multicast_ttl(4) // Multicast TTL
.build();
```
## Resource Management
### Memory Control
```rust
use auto_discovery::config::{ResourceConfig, MemoryConfig};
let memory_config = MemoryConfig::builder()
.max_services(10_000)
.max_concurrent_operations(100)
.gc_interval(Duration::from_secs(3600))
.build();
let resource_config = ResourceConfig::builder()
.memory_config(memory_config)
.build();
```
### Runtime Configuration
```rust
use tokio::runtime;
let runtime = runtime::Builder::new_multi_thread()
.worker_threads(4)
.max_blocking_threads(10)
.thread_name("autodiscovery-worker")
.enable_all()
.build()
.unwrap();
```
## Monitoring and Metrics
### Prometheus Integration
```rust
use auto_discovery::metrics::{MetricsConfig, PrometheusExporter};
let metrics_config = MetricsConfig::builder()
.enable_prometheus()
.collection_interval(Duration::from_secs(15))
.build();
// Example metrics
// autodiscovery_services_total{protocol="mdns"} 42
// autodiscovery_cache_hit_ratio{} 0.95
// autodiscovery_discovery_duration_seconds{} 0.123
```
### Health Checks
```rust
use auto_discovery::health::{HealthConfig, HealthCheck};
let health_config = HealthConfig::builder()
.check_interval(Duration::from_secs(30))
.failure_threshold(3)
.build();
```
## Benchmark Results
| Light | 100 | 20 | 1-2 | 5-10 | 95% |
| Medium | 1,000 | 50 | 5-10 | 20-50 | 90% |
| Heavy | 10,000 | 200 | 15-25 | 100-200 | 85% |
### Protocol Performance Comparison
| DNS-SD | 500ms | Low | Low | High |
| mDNS | 100ms | Low | Medium | Medium |
| UPnP | 200ms | Medium | High | Medium |
## Security Impact on Performance
Security features may impact performance:
| TSIG Authentication | +2-5% | Negligible | +5% |
| TLS/DTLS | +10-15% | +10MB | +20% |
| Certificate Pinning | +1-2% | Negligible | None |
## Platform-Specific Tuning
### Windows Optimization
```rust
let config = DiscoveryConfig::builder()
.windows_specific()
.use_iocp(true) // Use I/O Completion Ports
.tcp_loopback_fast_path(true) // Fast loopback
.build();
```
### Linux Optimization
```rust
let config = DiscoveryConfig::builder()
.linux_specific()
.use_epoll(true) // Use epoll
.reuse_port(true) // Enable SO_REUSEPORT
.build();
```
