How can I improve multithreading performance in my application?

To improve multithreading performance, consider optimizing your algorithms, minimizing lock contention, and using thread pools.

What are some common tools for measuring multithreading performance?

Common tools include Intel VTune, Visual Studio Profiler, and ThreadSanitizer. They help identify bottlenecks.

Can you explain lock contention and how to reduce it?

Lock contention occurs when multiple threads compete for the same lock. You can reduce it by using finer-grained locks or lock-free data structures.

Are there any best practices for designing multithreaded applications?

Yes, best practices include keeping threads short-lived, avoiding shared state when possible, and using immutable objects.
