Always consider computational complexity and performance when implementing algorithms. Look for opportunities to optimize through early exits, efficient comparison strategies, and avoiding nested loops that create O(N*M) complexity.

Key optimization techniques:
Example of optimized comparison:
// Instead of string concatenation comparison:
return fmt.Sprintf("%s/%s/%s", left.Type, left.Message, left.Status) <
fmt.Sprintf("%s/%s/%s", right.Type, right.Message, right.Status)
// Use field-by-field comparison with early returns:
if left.Type != right.Type {
return left.Type < right.Type
}
if left.Message != right.Message {
return left.Message < right.Message
}
return left.Status < right.Status
Example of early loop exit:
// Add break to avoid unnecessary iterations
for _, r := range resources {
if condition_met {
bAllNeedPrune = false
break // Exit early once condition is found
}
}
Consider the algorithmic impact of your implementation choices, especially when dealing with collections or repeated operations that could affect system performance at scale.
