performance-tuning

A guide for improving Adobe Dispatcher, an Apache web-server module that caches and serves AEM content, in Adobe Managed Services (AMS) deployments running AEM 6.5.

In plain words
What is it for?
Improving cache use, response time, and request capacity; reviewing HTTPD and Dispatcher settings; and verifying changes with configuration checks and runtime evidence.
Why use it?
It helps find performance changes without guessing, while checking their effect against baseline measurements and AMS-specific safety rules.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

performance-tuning scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Dispatcher Performance Tuning (AMS)

Improve cache efficiency, latency, and throughput for AMS deployments that use the Adobe Dispatcher Apache HTTP Server module and related HTTPD configuration.

Variant Scope

  • This skill is AMS-only.
  • Scope is fixed by this skill directory; do not ask the user to choose deployment variant.

MCP Tool Contract

Use only these Dispatcher MCP tools:

  • validate
  • lint
  • sdk
  • trace_request
  • inspect_cache
  • monitor_metrics
  • tail_logs

Workflow

  1. Capture baseline metrics and cache evidence.
  2. Apply AMS 6.5 guardrails (tier boundaries, variable-driven config, flush ACL safety) to candidate optimizations.
  3. Prioritize low-risk/high-impact changes.
  4. Apply minimal edits.
  5. Verify with validate, lint, and sdk.
  6. Compare before/after runtime evidence.

Verification Scope Selection

Use shared references to select optimization evidence depth:

Output Contract

Always return:

  • baseline metrics snapshot
  • prioritized optimization list with impact/risk
  • changed files and intent
  • executed checks + before/after evidence
  • selected test IDs and outcomes
  • rollback plan and open risks

Guardrails

  • Do not claim improvement without measurable comparison.
  • Keep high-risk tuning opt-in unless user explicitly requests it.
  • Keep AMS assumptions explicit for each recommendation batch.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

performance-tuning is a skill published in the GitHub repository adobe/skills (175 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 39 tokens to every session and 810 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
