- I've seen huge React components with tons of useState, so every little state change re-renders a massive component with lots of complex logic. It can be better to split that into subcomponents so it renders less, less often. - In React, it's usually good to wrap components in memo. Without memo, any state change passes down the entire component tree, and then the virtual dom has to diff a massive tree of nodes, which is slow. - Chaining array functions like map and filter can be slow because it loops the full array and also allocates a new array for each one. If you're doing multiple operations on an array it's probably better to use a simple for loop with your complex logic, and push to an "out" array.

If you want to go deep on micro-optimizing, these are some of the little differences we've found. I think we will expand on this with some benchmarks. https://legendapp.com/open-source/state/fast/#micro-optimiza...

And if you want to go deep on React performance and what Legend-State does to make it faster, I went into a lot of detail here: https://legendapp.com/open-source/legend-state/
