Loop Engineering recommends: Let the agent optimize until each page is less than 50ms!

This sub-50ms page-load loop is a very typical project example in the Loop Library.

Each target page must be stably below 50ms under the same set of benchmarks.

The action of the agent is also very clear: first test the baseline, do a meaningful optimization, and then retest all pages under the same conditions to confirm that there is no local speedup and other pages slowdown.

I like this example very much because it puts the agent in the most suitable position: dealing with repetitive, trivial, feedback-closed engineering hard work.

But we can’t just look at “letting AI automatically optimize” here.

The real professionalism lies in fixed indicators, fixed environment, fixed route, and fixed stopping conditions.

Otherwise, performance optimization can easily turn into metaphysical parameter adjustment, and the agent will run further and further away in the noise.
