# Server Channels Review Guidelines
|
|
|
|
When reviewing or writing code in the server channels package, focus on SQL query performance and API layer efficiency.
|
|
|
|
## SQL Store Layer
|
|
|
|
- Run `EXPLAIN ANALYZE` on new or modified queries against a large dataset before merging. A query that performs well on a 12M-post database may degrade significantly at 100M+ posts.
|
|
- Watch for sequential scans on large tables. Ensure appropriate indexes exist for new query patterns.
|
|
- When adding new queries to the store, check whether an existing query already fetches the needed data. Avoid duplicate round trips to the database.
|
|
|
|
## API Layer
|
|
|
|
- Minimize database round trips. If an endpoint calls a `Get` followed by a `Delete` on the same row, consider using `DELETE ... RETURNING` to combine them into a single query.
|
|
- Don't add queries that are unnecessary for the operation. The most efficient work is the work you don't do.
|
|
- When adding new API endpoints, add them to the load test tooling so performance can be validated under realistic concurrency.
|
|
|
|
## Permissions and Security
|
|
|
|
- Verify that new endpoints enforce appropriate permissions. Rely on the dedicated security review for thorough coverage, but flag anything obviously missing (e.g., an endpoint that skips permission checks entirely).
