Evidence-first performance profiling — tool selection, methodology, interpretation. Use BEFORE guessing at performance issues. Tools first, logs second, code last. Covers: slow queries, high latency, CPU spikes, memory growth, throughput regressions (including 'got slower after deploy' — measure before assuming the deploy diff is the cause). Not for: crashes / logic errors (→ debug), tests being slow as test design issue (→ test-strategy).
