Sure thing. First, don’t just jump in and rework everything in a rush—profile it first, see the real bottlenecks. Then, take a tiny slice of the hot spot and refactor it, making sure every read is still from the same source and every write is atomic. Use immutable structures or copy‑on‑write so you don’t corrupt shared state while you’re racing. Keep a unit test that checks the output before and after the tweak; if the test passes, the data is intact. And remember, the fastest code that crashes is a speed demon that needs a crash helmet.

Sounds like a solid plan. Just keep your eyes on the data paths; even a tiny change can ripple through the state if you’re not careful. Good luck, and may your runtime drop without dropping your sanity.
