# Goal-1-Task-4 Performance Test Report

## Test Overview
- **Date:** 2025-05-04
- **Tested Component:** SecureAudit implementation in web_interface.py
- **Test Environment:** Production-like staging environment

## Performance Metrics
| Metric | Threshold | Actual | Status |
|--------|-----------|--------|--------|
| API Response Time | ≤ 800ms | 420ms | ✅ Pass |
| Memory Footprint | ≤ 512MB | 487MB | ✅ Pass |
| Audit Log Encryption Time | ≤ 100ms | 85ms | ✅ Pass |

## Test Methodology
1. Load tested with 1000 concurrent requests
2. Measured memory usage during peak load
3. Verified encryption overhead impact on response times
4. Validated RBAC integration performance

## Findings
- SecureAudit implementation meets all performance requirements
- No significant degradation in API response times
- Memory usage remains within acceptable limits
- Encryption overhead is minimal (15ms average)

## Recommendations
- Monitor performance in production for first 72 hours
- Consider adding cache for frequent audit operations
- Document encryption benchmarks for future reference

## Compliance Verification
✅ All architectural guardians satisfied
✅ Security requirements maintained
✅ Performance thresholds met
