## v8-isolates,-perfected

V8 Isolates, Perfected Every request in DXP runs inside a V8 isolate — a lightweight, sandboxed JavaScript execution environment that starts in microseconds, not milliseconds. The isolate pool pre-warms instances with V8 snapshots that include the entire DXP runtime, eliminating cold-start overhead. The multi-tier memory system automatically promotes frequently-accessed data to L1 (in-process), warm data to L2 (distributed cache), and archival data to L3 (persistent storage). This tiered approach delivers consistent sub-50ms response times regardless of traffic patterns.
