# Elasticity / Warm-Up Latency

> "elasticity" (performance-core layer) is traded against "Warm-Up Latency" (performance-core layer) — a principle cannot be scope-separated from a quality, metric, or cost it competes with; resolve by measuring "Warm-Up Latency" and choosing an explicit operating point.
