Run Your First Test:
====================

1. Simple test run (no benchmarking):
   pytest tests/performance/test_database_performance.py::test_item_lookup_by_id_indexed -v

2. With benchmark statistics:
   pytest tests/performance/test_database_performance.py::test_item_lookup_by_id_indexed -v --benchmark-only

3. Run all tests (full suite):
   pytest tests/performance/ -v

4. Establish baseline:
   python tests/performance/run_performance_tests.py --baseline

5. Check for regressions:
   python tests/performance/run_performance_tests.py --compare

Key Performance Baselines:
==========================
- Single item create: 50ms
- Single item read: 20ms
- Bulk create 1000: 5.0s (200 items/sec)
- Query 1000 items: 100ms

Load Testing:
=============
locust -f tests/performance/locustfile.py --host=http://localhost:8000
(Opens web UI at http://localhost:8089)
