Not every infrastructure pain deserves the same kind of solution. Sometimes the problem is minor tuning. Sometimes it is a specific fix. Sometimes, however, everything suggests that the model is weak and you need an architectural change, not a new setting.
If you do not tell these three cases apart, it is very easy to start sticking temporary solutions onto a permanent problem.
What helps to tell them apart
- does the problem come back after local corrections
- does it affect only one point or is it a systemic pattern
- is there a sign that the limitation is in the design itself
- after the "fix", does the system become more stable or does it merely survive
