golang-performance

Golang performance optimization patterns and methodology - if X bottleneck, then apply Y. Covers allocation reduction, CPU efficiency, memory layout, GC tuning, pooling, caching, and hot-path optimization. Use when profiling or benchmarks have identified a bottleneck and you need the right optimization pattern to fix it. Also use when performing performance code review to suggest improvements or benchmarks that could help identify quick performance gains. Not for measurement methodology (→ See `samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-benchmark` skill) or debugging workflow (→ See `samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-troubleshooting` skill).

golang-lint

Linting best practices and golangci-lint configuration for Golang projects — running linters, configuring .golangci.yml, suppressing warnings with nolint directives, interpreting lint output, and selecting linters. Use when configuring golangci-lint, asking about lint warnings or nolint suppressions, setting up code quality tooling, or choosing linters. Also use when the user mentions golangci-lint, go vet, staticcheck, or revive.

golang-how-to

Golang skills orchestrator — always active on any Golang coding, review, debug, or setup task. Reads the task context and loads the most relevant skills from samber/cc-skills-golang, often multiple at once: writing a gRPC service loads golang-grpc + golang-testing + golang-error-handling; debugging a panic loads golang-troubleshooting + golang-safety; auditing security loads golang-security + golang-lint + golang-safety. Also: disambiguates competing clusters when two skills seem to overlap (performance vs benchmark vs troubleshooting, samber/lo vs mo vs ro, DI cluster, safety vs security), and configures CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md to force-trigger skills in a project (/golang-how-to configure).

golang-project-layout

Provides a guide for setting up Golang project layouts and workspaces. Use when starting a new Go project, organizing an existing codebase, setting up a monorepo with multiple packages, creating CLI tools with multiple main packages, deciding between cmd/internal/pkg directory conventions, or discussing package restructuring, package splits, or module splits.

Go Performance Optimization

Core Philosophy

Profile before optimizing — intuition about bottlenecks is wrong ~80% of the time. Use pprof to find actual hot spots (→ See samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-troubleshooting skill)

Allocation reduction yields the biggest ROI — Go's GC is fast but not free. Reducing allocations per request often matters more than micro-optimizing CPU

Document optimizations — add code comments explaining why a pattern is faster, with benchmark numbers when available. Future readers need context to avoid reverting an "unnecessary" optimization

Rule Out External Bottlenecks First

Before optimizing Go code, verify the bottleneck is in your process — if 90% of latency is a slow DB query or API call, reducing allocations won't help.

Diagnose: 1- fgprof — captures on-CPU and off-CPU (I/O wait) time; if off-CPU dominates, the bottleneck is external 2- go tool pprof (goroutine profile) — many goroutines blocked in or = external wait 3- Distributed tracing (OpenTelemetry) — span breakdown shows which upstream is slow

Bottleneck	Signal (from pprof)	Action
Too many allocations	`alloc_objects` high in heap profile	Memory optimization
CPU-bound hot loop	function dominates CPU profile	CPU optimization
GC pauses / OOM	high GC%, container limits	Runtime tuning
Network / I/O latency	goroutines blocked on I/O	I/O & networking
Repeated expensive work	same computation/fetch multiple times	Caching patterns
Wrong algorithm	O(n²) where O(n) exists	Algorithmic complexity
Lock contention	mutex/block profile hot	→ See `samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-concurrency` skill
Slow queries	DB time dominates traces	→ See `samber/cc-skills-golang@golang-database` skill

Mistake	Fix
Optimizing without profiling	Profile with pprof first — intuition is wrong ~80% of the time
Default `http.Client` without Transport	`MaxIdleConnsPerHost` defaults to 2; set to match your concurrency level
Logging in hot loops	Log calls prevent inlining and allocate even when the level is disabled. Use `slog.LogAttrs`
`panic`/`recover` as control flow	panic allocates a stack trace and unwinds the stack; use error returns
`unsafe` without benchmark proof	Only justified when profiling shows >10% improvement in a verified hot path
No GC tuning in containers	Set `GOMEMLIMIT` to 80-90% of container memory to prevent OOM kills
`reflect.DeepEqual` in production	50-200x slower than typed comparison; use `slices.Equal`, `maps.Equal`, `bytes.Equal`
