What third-party libraries do you use to improve performance in Django projects?

To improve performance in Django projects, the following third-party libraries are often used:

• django-debug-toolbar — helps identify bottlenecks in queries and templates.
• django-redis — for caching using Redis, which significantly speeds up data access.
• django-cachalot — automatic caching of ORM queries.
• django-silk — profiling of queries and code.
• celery — for asynchronous task execution, relieving the main thread.
• django-compressor — compression and merging of CSS/JS files to speed up loading.

Example of using django-redis for caching:

# settings.py
CACHES = {
    "default": {
        "BACKEND": "django_redis.cache.RedisCache",
        "LOCATION": "redis://127.0.0.1:6379/1",
        "OPTIONS": {
            "CLIENT_CLASS": "django_redis.client.DefaultClient",
        }
    }
}

# views.py
from django.core.cache import cache

def my_view(request):
    data = cache.get('my_key')
    if not data:
        data = expensive_query()
        cache.set('my_key', data, timeout=300)
    return render(request, 'template.html', {'data': data})
