We need to conduct a list of metrics that we need to measure in order to understand whether our changes improve the performance or not. This is the first step we need to make before we can start discussing tools that can help us to measure desired metrics and environments where we will run performance tests.

Since this plugin is intended to improve frontend and backend performance, we will need to conduct two lists of metrics. Please, suggest metrics that you think we need to track and provide some details about why we need them.

Frontend metrics:

• TBD

Backend metrics:

• Wall Time of the main function
• CPU Time
• Memory usage
