Prevent unnecessary recalculations and rerenders by properly memoizing expensive computations and derived values in React components. Pay special attention to dependency arrays and ensure they only include stable references.
Prevent unnecessary recalculations and rerenders by properly memoizing expensive computations and derived values in React components. Pay special attention to dependency arrays and ensure they only include stable references.
Key points:
Example of proper memoization:
// Instead of this (causes unnecessary recalculations):
const sortBysString = JSON.stringify(sortBys);
// Do this:
const sortBysString = useMemo(() => JSON.stringify(sortBys), [sortBys]);
// For functions that depend on changing objects, extract stable values:
const handleSearchChange = useMemo(
() =>
debounce((newValue: string) => {
const currentParams = Object.fromEntries(searchParams.entries());
// ... rest of the logic
}, 500),
[setSearchParams] // Only depend on stable function reference
);
This optimization is particularly important for:
