Problem

Explain your approach to debugging performance bottlenecks in a React frontend integrated with a Python backend.

Discuss how you would determine whether the bottleneck is in React rendering, browser work, network transfer, Python request handling, database access, or downstream services. Describe the profiling tools, measurements, and code-level evidence you would use, plus how you would verify that a fix improved the correct part of the request path.
