API endpoints designed to demonstrate large dataset efficiency. **Responses are displayed below.**
What it Demos: Standard Paging & Metrics
Shows traditional pagination (Skip/Take) to retrieve a small subset of a large table efficiently.
Why it's Special: Includes server-side execution time in the response payload. (Hover for details)
Test Default (Page 1, Size 50)What it Demos: Efficient Chunking/Streaming
Retrieves all data in small, memory-safe chunks, avoiding huge memory consumption on the server.
Why it's Special: Ideal for processing large datasets in the background. (Hover for details)
Test Chunked (Size 1000)What it Demos: Database Aggregation
Offloads complex calculations like COUNT and SUM directly to the SQL database engine.
Why it's Special: Performs lightning-fast aggregations on huge tables. (Hover for details)
Test StatsWhat it Demos: High-Speed Bulk Data Insertion
A non-transactional action using specialized libraries for the fastest way to insert synthetic data.
Why it's Special: Highlights the massive performance gain of batch insert libraries. (Hover for details)

You'll see execution time change every click. This is normal and due to internal optimizations:
| Scenario | Typical Time | Reason (The "Why") |
|---|---|---|
| First Click | Slowest | Database Cold Start: Database reads data from slow disk into fast memory cache. |
| Second/Later Clicks | Faster & Consistent | Database Warm Cache: Data is in RAM and the query plan is pre-compiled. |
| Occasional Spikes | Slower | Server running background tasks like Garbage Collection (memory cleanup). |
The most reliable performance metric is usually the time recorded after the first "warm-up" click.
