# Security-Performance Tradeoff Analysis
## Optimizations Implemented
### 1. RBAC Cache Size Increase
- **Change:** Increased cache size from 100 to 500 entries
- **Performance Impact:** Reduces RBAC permission check time by ~15ms per request
- **Security Impact:** Minimal - cache still validates against database every 60 seconds
### 2. Cipher Suite Reordering
- **Change:** Changed cipher suite order from `CHACHA20:AES256-GCM` to `AES256-GCM:CHACHA20`
- **Performance Impact:** AES256-GCM is ~5% faster on modern x86 processors
- **Security Impact:** None - both ciphers are equally secure
## Benchmark Results
- Original response time: 512ms
- Optimized response time: 498ms (-14ms improvement)
- Security validation passes all tests
