I thought I’d ask for what tips you more advanced Julia users have for how to maximize code performance in general. I realize that without a specific use-case some ways may be missed, but I thought I’d check whether yous have any general advice. Based on the replies to [Inconsistent typing making adding arrays and adding a vector to the end of an array difficult](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/inconsistent-typing-making-adding-arrays-and-adding-a-vector-to-the-end-of-an-array-difficult/47662), I know some already, such as using StaticArrays instead of regular arrays.

There’s a lot of useful performance information here: [Performance Tips · The Julia Language](https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/manual/performance-tips/)
