Stop my inputs from firing a request on every keystroke
Debounce and throttle search boxes, autosaves, and live filters so typing doesn't hammer your server.

What This Does / How This Helps
This audits every input that fires requests or heavy work per keystroke and applies debouncing, throttling, request cancellation, and minimum query lengths. A search box that hits your API on every keystroke turns one user typing 'postgresql' into ten database queries, most of them discarded. Multiply by real users and your server spends its life answering queries nobody waited for. It also produces visible bugs: responses arriving out of order so the results show a stale query's data. This is a small change with an outsized effect on both server load and perceived speed.
