Oct 5, 2024T-F-F-T-F-F-F As described in the Software Architecture Fundementals book in chapter 5.2.1.4, adaptability and flexibility are in conflict with increased performance.

Oct 30, 2024I would say T-F-T-T-F-F-F as in the same chapter it is mentioned that increase performance requirements hinders the timely completion of project

Dec 20, 2024Looking at chapter 5.2.1.4, it is citing all conflicting quality characteristics. In that list the only two that are related to performance is Adaptability and Flexibility. Since the question specifically ask about what performance competes with, it seems the answer should be A and D. But that's just how I read it.

Dec 21, 2024EDIT: That same section cites that: The requirement for increased performance can in turn hinder timely completion." So it looks like A C D but elsewhere in other architecture documentation security can compete with performance. For example, in a zero-trust architecture, there is a performance hit for authentication and authorization. Also, there is always a performance hit for doing things like SSL/TLS, etc. So I'm not sure about security...
