We have an AI agent application built with Python, LangChain, and AWS Bedrock that currently takes around 40 seconds per LLM response. We need to reduce latency dramatically for investor demos, ideally under 10 seconds. The backend is Flask (Python 3.10) on AWS Lambda with a React frontend and Bedrock Claude models.
You’ll be responsible for targeted performance fixes focused on measurable speed gains. The work includes optimizing Bedrock configuration, implementing real token-by-token streaming, adding Redis caching to replace S3-based message storage, and validating performance improvements with before-and-after latency metrics.
Estimated 6 hours of work.
Tasks
Optimize Bedrock Model Configuration: update bedrock_config.py to disable thinking mode, remove unnecessary budget_tokens, and lower temperature from 1.0 to around 0.2–0.3 for deterministic, faster responses. Confirm that the configuration change reduces token generation delay and verbosity.
Implement Real Token Streaming (Backend): replace agent.invoke with a streaming method using Bedrock ConverseStream or LangChain’s stream API. Ensure partial tokens are sent to the client in real time and test time-to-first-token performance.
Enable Live Streaming Display (Frontend): update the React frontend to handle streamed events progressively so users see text as it generates. Confirm the UI starts displaying output within 2–3 seconds of sending input.
Add Redis Caching for Chat Session Memory: replace S3-based chat history with Redis for in-memory storage. Update the chat_history_manager logic, validate cache persistence, and confirm message load time is near-instant.
Measure and Document Latency Improvements: record baseline timing (total response and time-to-first-token), re-measure after optimizations, and summarize the before/after results. Confirm at least a 4–5× improvement in perceived speed. All optimizations must preserve the exact response content and formatting from the LLM - only response speed may change.
Deliverables • Updated, tested backend and frontend code (GitHub commit or zip) • Before/after latency test results (text or JSON summary) • One short summary of what was changed and verified
