## Performance Monitoring API

### Query Tracking

```javascript
const monitor = new PerformanceMonitor();

// Track query start
const queryId = monitor.startQuery('SELECT * FROM Users', 'SELECT');

// Track query completion (success)
monitor.endQuery(queryId, {
  success: true,
  rowsAffected: 150
});

// Track query completion (error)
monitor.endQuery(queryId, {
  success: false,
  error: new Error('Connection timeout')
});
```

### Connection Pool Monitoring

```javascript
// Log connection pool events
monitor.logPoolEvent('connection_acquired', {
  activeConnections: 5,
  availableConnections: 10,
  totalConnections: 15
});

monitor.logPoolEvent('connection_released', {
  activeConnections: 4,
  availableConnections: 11,
  totalConnections: 15
});
```

### Health Assessment

```javascript
// Get current system health
const health = monitor.assessHealth();
console.log(`System Health: ${health.score}/100`);
console.log(`Status: ${health.status}`);

// Health status levels:
// - EXCELLENT (90-100): System performing optimally
// - GOOD (70-89): System performing well
// - FAIR (50-69): System experiencing some issues
// - POOR (30-49): System experiencing significant issues
// - CRITICAL (0-29): System in critical state
```

### Statistics Retrieval

```javascript
// Get performance statistics
const stats = monitor.getStatistics();

console.log('Query Statistics:', {
  total: stats.totalQueries,
  successful: stats.successfulQueries,
  failed: stats.failedQueries,
  successRate: `${((stats.successfulQueries / stats.totalQueries) * 100).toFixed(2)}%`,
  avgDuration: `${stats.avgQueryDuration.toFixed(2)}ms`
});

console.log('Recent Queries:', stats.recentQueries.slice(0, 10));
```

### Report Generation

```javascript
// Generate comprehensive performance report
const report = monitor.generateReport();

console.log('Performance Report:', JSON.stringify(report, null, 2));

// Report includes:
// - Execution summary
// - Performance statistics
// - Health assessment
// - Connection pool status
// - Recent query history
// - System recommendations
```

## Health Assessment Algorithm

The system health score is calculated using a weighted algorithm:

```javascript
calculateHealthScore() {
  const weights = {
    successRate: 40,      // 40% weight on query success rate
    responseTime: 30,     // 30% weight on response time performance
    poolHealth: 20,       // 20% weight on connection pool health
    errorRate: 10         // 10% weight on recent error rate
  };

  // Calculate component scores (0-100)
  const successRateScore = Math.min(this.getSuccessRate() * 100, 100);
  const responseTimeScore = this.calculateResponseTimeScore();
  const poolHealthScore = this.calculatePoolHealthScore();
  const errorRateScore = Math.max(100 - (this.getRecentErrorRate() * 200), 0);

  // Weighted composite score
  const compositeScore = (
    (successRateScore * weights.successRate) +
    (responseTimeScore * weights.responseTime) +
    (poolHealthScore * weights.poolHealth) +
    (errorRateScore * weights.errorRate)
  ) / 100;

  return Math.round(Math.max(0, Math.min(100, compositeScore)));
}
```

## Performance Testing Guidelines

### Load Testing

```javascript
// Example load test for query performance
describe('Query Performance Load Test', () => {
  test('should handle concurrent queries efficiently', async () => {
    const monitor = new PerformanceMonitor();
    const concurrentQueries = 50;
    const queries = Array(concurrentQueries)
      .fill()
      .map((_, i) => `SELECT * FROM Users WHERE id = ${i}`);

    const startTime = Date.now();

    // Execute queries concurrently
    const results = await Promise.allSettled(queries.map(sql => executeQuery(sql)));

    const endTime = Date.now();
    const totalTime = endTime - startTime;

    // Performance assertions
    expect(totalTime).toBeLessThan(5000); // Complete within 5 seconds
    expect(results.filter(r => r.status === 'fulfilled').length).toBe(concurrentQueries); // All queries successful

    const stats = monitor.getStatistics();
    expect(stats.avgQueryDuration).toBeLessThan(100); // Average under 100ms
  });
});
```

### Memory Leak Testing

```javascript
describe('Memory Management', () => {
  test('should not leak memory over time', async () => {
    const monitor = new PerformanceMonitor({
      maxQueryHistory: 1000,
      cleanupInterval: 1000 // 1 second
    });

    // Generate load over time
    for (let i = 0; i < 5000; i++) {
      const queryId = monitor.startQuery(`SELECT ${i}`, 'SELECT');
      monitor.endQuery(queryId, { success: true });

      if (i % 1000 === 0) {
        await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 100));
      }
    }

    // Verify cleanup occurred
    const stats = monitor.getStatistics();
    expect(stats.recentQueries.length).toBeLessThanOrEqual(1000);
  });
});
```

### Health Assessment Testing

```javascript
describe('Health Assessment', () => {
  test('should accurately reflect system health', () => {
    const monitor = new PerformanceMonitor();

    // Simulate excellent performance
    for (let i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
      const queryId = monitor.startQuery('SELECT 1', 'SELECT');
      monitor.endQuery(queryId, {
        success: true,
        duration: Math.random() * 20 + 5 // 5-25ms
      });
    }

    const health = monitor.assessHealth();
    expect(health.score).toBeGreaterThan(90);
    expect(health.status).toBe('EXCELLENT');
  });
});
```

## Production Configuration

### Optimal Settings

For production environments:

```javascript
const monitor = new PerformanceMonitor({
  // Query tracking
  maxQueryHistory: 10000, // Keep 10k recent queries

  // Memory management
  cleanupInterval: 5 * 60 * 1000, // Cleanup every 5 minutes
  maxMemoryUsage: 100 * 1024 * 1024, // 100MB limit

  // Health assessment
  healthCheckInterval: 30 * 1000, // Health check every 30 seconds

  // Aggregation
  statisticsWindow: 60 * 60 * 1000, // 1-hour rolling window

  // Alerts
  enableAlerts: true,
  alertThresholds: {
    healthScore: 70, // Alert if health drops below 70
    avgResponseTime: 1000, // Alert if avg response > 1s
    errorRate: 0.05 // Alert if error rate > 5%
  }
});
```

### Monitoring Integration

```javascript
// Integration with external monitoring systems
monitor.on('health_degradation', health => {
  // Send to monitoring system (DataDog, New Relic, etc.)
  sendMetric('system.health.score', health.score);

  if (health.score < 50) {
    sendAlert('System health critical', health);
  }
});

monitor.on('slow_query', query => {
  // Log slow queries for analysis
  logger.warn('Slow query detected', {
    sql: query.sql,
    duration: query.duration,
    timestamp: query.timestamp
  });
});
```

## Performance Optimization Tips

### Query Optimization

1. **Use Parameterized Queries**: Improves execution plan caching
2. **Limit Result Sets**: Use TOP/LIMIT clauses appropriately
3. **Optimize JOINs**: Ensure proper indexing on join columns
4. **Monitor Execution Plans**: Use the explain_query tool

### Connection Pool Optimization

1. **Right-Size Pool**: Balance connection overhead vs availability
2. **Monitor Pool Utilization**: Adjust size based on actual usage
3. **Set Appropriate Timeouts**: Balance responsiveness vs resource usage
4. **Implement Circuit Breakers**: Prevent cascade failures

### Memory Management

1. **Configure History Limits**: Balance observability vs memory usage
2. **Regular Cleanup**: Implement automated cleanup processes
3. **Monitor Growth**: Track memory usage over time
4. **Implement Alerts**: Get notified of memory issues early

## Troubleshooting Performance Issues

### Common Issues and Solutions

| Issue                   | Symptoms                | Solution                             |
| ----------------------- | ----------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| **High Response Times** | Queries taking >1s      | Check indexes, optimize queries      |
| **Pool Exhaustion**     | Connection timeouts     | Increase pool size or optimize usage |
| **Memory Leaks**        | Increasing memory usage | Check cleanup configuration          |
| **Low Health Score**    | System health <70       | Investigate component scores         |

### Diagnostic Queries

```javascript
// Analyze slow queries
const slowQueries = monitor
  .getStatistics()
  .recentQueries.filter(q => q.duration > 1000)
  .sort((a, b) => b.duration - a.duration);

// Check pool utilization trends
const poolEvents = monitor.getPoolEvents().filter(e => e.type === 'utilization_high');

// Identify error patterns
const errorPatterns = monitor.getStatistics().failedQueries.reduce((patterns, query) => {
  const errorType = query.error?.name || 'Unknown';
  patterns[errorType] = (patterns[errorType] || 0) + 1;
  return patterns;
}, {});
```

This performance monitoring system provides enterprise-grade observability and helps maintain optimal system performance in production environments.
