=== Process-level Optimizations === Elixir's built-in concurrency model, based on lightweight processes (not to be confused with operating system processes), enables parallel execution and scalable applications. Consider the following techniques to optimize process-level operations: ==== Use Processes Wisely ==== Designing applications with proper process management in mind is crucial for optimal performance. Use processes judiciously to distribute workload and ensure efficient resource utilization. ==== Message Passing ==== Elixir relies heavily on message passing between processes. To optimize this communication, minimize the size of messages and avoid unnecessary copying. Consider using binary data or stream-based communication for large amounts of data. ==== Asynchronous Operations ==== Leverage the asynchronous nature of Elixir to perform non-blocking operations wherever possible. This enables processes to continue their execution without waiting for a response, leading to improved performance and responsiveness.
