Optimize Clay API performance with caching, batching, and connection pooling. Use when experiencing slow API responses, implementing caching strategies, or optimizing request throughput for Clay integrations. Trigger with phrases like "clay performance", "optimize clay", "clay latency", "clay caching", "clay slow", "clay batch".

## Overview
Optimize Clay API performance with caching, batching, and connection pooling.
## Prerequisites
- Clay SDK installed
- Understanding of async patterns
- Redis or in-memory cache available (optional)
- Performance monitoring in place
## Latency Benchmarks
| Operation | P50 | P95 | P99 |
|-----------|-----|-----|-----|
| Read | 50ms | 150ms | 300ms |
| Write | 100ms | 250ms | 500ms |
| List | 75ms | 200ms | 400ms |
## Caching Strategy
### Response Caching
```typescript
import { LRUCache } from 'lru-cache';
const cache = new LRUCache<string, any>({
max: 1000,
ttl: 60000, // 1 minute
updateAgeOnGet: true,
});
async function cachedClayRequest<T>(
key: string,
fetcher: () => Promise<T>,
ttl?: number
): Promise<T> {
const cached = cache.get(key);
if (cached) return cached as T;
const result = await fetcher();
cache.set(key, result, { ttl });
return result;
}
```
### Redis Caching (Distributed)
```typescript
import Redis from 'ioredis';
const redis = new Redis(process.env.REDIS_URL);
async function cachedWithRedis<T>(
key: string,
fetcher: () => Promise<T>,
ttlSeconds = 60
): Promise<T> {
const cached = await redis.get(key);
if (cached) return JSON.parse(cached);
const result = await fetcher();
await redis.setex(key, ttlSeconds, JSON.stringify(result));
return result;
}
```
## Request Batching
```typescript
import DataLoader from 'dataloader';
const clayLoader = new DataLoader<string, any>(
async (ids) => {
// Batch fetch from Clay
const results = await clayClient.batchGet(ids);
return ids.map(id => results.find(r => r.id === id) || null);
},
{
maxBatchSize: 100,
batchScheduleFn: callback => setTimeout(callback, 10),
}
);
// Usage - automatically batched
const [item1, item2, item3] = await Promise.all([
clayLoader.load('id-1'),
clayLoader.load('id-2'),
clayLoader.load('id-3'),
]);
```
## Connection Optimization
```typescript
import { Agent } from '
