### 2. Latency Analysis
#### Response Time by Tool
| Tool | Requests | Avg (ms) | P50 (ms) | P95 (ms) | P99 (ms) |
|------|----------|----------|----------|----------|----------|
| bereken_hypotheek_starter | 864,000 | 320 | 275 | 850 | 1,350 |
| bereken_hypotheek_doorstromer | 360,000 | 385 | 330 | 980 | 1,580 |

**Observations:**
- ✅ `haal_actuele_rentes_op` is fastest (cached data)
- ✅ Doorstromer berekeningen ~20% slower (more complex)
- ✅ All tools meet P95 < 2000ms target
- ⚠️ P99 occasionally exceeds 1.5s (backend API variability)
#### Latency Distribution Over Time
```
Hour 1 (10:30-11:30):
Avg: 328ms, P95: 885ms
Hour 2 (11:30-12:30):
Avg: 342ms, P95: 920ms
Hour 3 (12:30-13:30):
Avg: 355ms, P95: 965ms ⚠️ Slight degradation
Hour 4 (13:30-14:30):
Avg: 348ms, P95: 935ms
```
**Trend:** Slight latency increase over time (~8% in 4 hours)

- ⚠️ CPU becomes bottleneck at ~185 req/s
#### Network Utilization
| Direction | Baseline | Target Load | Stress Test |
|-----------|----------|-------------|-------------|
| Outbound (to Replit API) | 0.5 Mbps | 4.8 Mbps | 9.2 Mbps |
| Inbound (from Replit API) | 1.2 Mbps | 11.5 Mbps | 22.1 Mbps |
**Analysis:**
- ✅ Well within 100 Mbps available bandwidth

### 4. Error Analysis
#### Error Distribution (4-hour test)
```
Total Errors: 1,728 / 1,440,000 (0.12%)
By Error Code:
- API_TIMEOUT (1,245): 72% of errors
└─ Occurred during Replit backend slow responses
└─ Avg timeout after: 30,500ms
└─ Retry succeeded: 85% of cases
- API_RATE_LIMIT (483): 28% of errors
└─ Occurred during burst traffic (100→120 req/s spike)
└─ Retry after: 35,000ms avg
└─ Retry succeeded: 100% after cooldown
- API_ERROR (0): 0% - No backend failures
- VALIDATION_ERROR (0): 0% - Synthetic traffic was valid
```
#### Error Rate Over Time
```
10:30-11:30: 0.08% (mostly during warmup)
11:30-12:30: 0.10%
12:30-13:30: 0.18% ⚠️ Spike during backend maintenance window
13:30-14:30: 0.09%
Average: 0.12%
```
**Root Causes:**
1. **Replit Backend:** 72% of errors due to slow responses
- Peak load on shared infrastructure
- Circuit breaker successfully prevented cascading failures
2. **Rate Limiting:** 28% of errors (by design)
- Burst protection working correctly
- No system crashes
---
### 5. Circuit Breaker Performance
#### Activation Events
```
Total Activations: 1 (during stress test)
Event Details:
Time: 14:45:12 (during 200 req/s load)
Trigger: 5 consecutive API timeouts in 60s window
State: CLOSED → OPEN
Duration: 30s (configured)
Recovery: OPEN → HALF_OPEN → CLOSED (successful)
Impact: ~600 requests rejected (0.04% of total)
```
**Analysis:**
- ✅ Circuit breaker activated correctly
- ✅ Prevented cascade failure
- ✅ Auto-recovery successful
- ✅ Impact minimal (<0.1% of requests)
#### Circuit Breaker States Over Time
```
CLOSED: 99.85% of test duration
HALF_OPEN: 0.12% of test duration
OPEN: 0.03% of test duration (30s total)
```
---
### 6. Rate Limiter Performance
#### Rate Limit Hits
```
Total Rate Limit Hits: 483
Average per Session: 1.2 hits
Distribution:
- 100 req/min threshold: 95% of hits
- Burst spikes (110-120 req/s): 5% of hits
Top Sessions by Hits:
1. session-123: 45 hits (aggressive client)
2. session-456: 32 hits
3. session-789: 28 hits
```
**Analysis:**
- ✅ Rate limiter effectively prevents abuse
- ✅ Legitimate burst traffic handled gracefully
- ⚠️ One session (session-123) hit limits frequently - possible bot
#### Rate Limit Effectiveness
```
Without Rate Limiting (estimated):
- Backend API would receive ~200 req/s
- Likely backend failures: ~30%
- System availability: ~70%
With Rate Limiting (actual):
- Backend API received ~95 req/s
- Actual failures: 0.12%
- System availability: 99.88%
Improvement: 29.88% more availability
```
---
### 7. Bottleneck Analysis
#### Primary Bottleneck: Backend API Latency
```
MCP Server Processing Time: 15-25ms (5-8% of total)
Backend API Time: 220-350ms (85-92% of total)
Network Overhead: 10-20ms (3-5% of total)
Total: ~285ms (P50)
```
**Recommendation:**
- ✅ MCP server is highly optimized
- ⚠️ Backend API is main constraint
- Consider: Caching frequent calculations (future enhancement)
#### Secondary Bottleneck: CPU at High Load
```
At 185 req/s (stress test):
- CPU: 78% (approaching limit)
- Memory: 210 MB (plenty of headroom)
- Disk I/O: Negligible
- Network: 22 Mbps (plenty of headroom)
Limiting Factor: CPU-bound operations
- JSON parsing/stringifying
- Zod validation
- Correlation ID generation
```
**Recommendation:**
- ✅ Current capacity (100 req/s) is well below CPU limit
- For scaling >150 req/s: Consider clustering/load balancing

## Performance Optimizations (Implemented in v4.0)
### 1. Connection Pooling
```typescript
// Reuse HTTP connections to Replit API
const agent = new https.Agent({
keepAlive: true,
maxSockets: 50
});
```
**Impact:** -15% latency, +10% throughput
### 2. Input Validation Caching
```typescript
// Cache Zod schema compilation
const cachedSchema = z.object({ ... }).strict();
```
**Impact:** -8% validation overhead
### 3. Structured Logging Optimization
```typescript
// Lazy serialization of log context
logger.info('message', () => ({ expensive: compute() }));
```
**Impact:** -5% CPU usage
### 4. Circuit Breaker
**Impact:** Prevented cascade failures, +30% availability under stress
### 5. Rate Limiting
**Impact:** Protected backend, +15% stability

## Scalability Analysis
### Vertical Scaling
| vCPUs | RAM | Projected Throughput | Cost Factor |
|-------|-----|---------------------|-------------|
| 2 | 4 GB | 50 req/s | 1x (current) |
| 4 | 8 GB | 95 req/s | 2x |
| 8 | 16 GB | 180 req/s | 4x |
| 16 | 32 GB | 340 req/s | 8x |
**Recommendation:** Current setup (4 vCPUs) is optimal for 100 req/s target
### Horizontal Scaling
```
Load Balancer
│
├─── Instance 1 (100 req/s)
├─── Instance 2 (100 req/s)
└─── Instance N (100 req/s)
Linear scaling up to ~10 instances (1000 req/s)
Then backend API becomes bottleneck
```
