 ## Performance tips
 
-### Don't call the LanguageService repeatedly
-The LanguageService is designed to serve editors. By design it does as little work to serve requests as possible.
-For most requests no cache is used.
-
-Let's say you need all usages of a variable. The LanguageService needs to check the whole AST subtree in which the variable is in scope.
-Doing that once is barely noticable. But doing it over and over again, will result in pretty bad performance (looking at you `no-unused-variable`).
-
 ### Use the TypeChecker only when needed
 The TypeChecker is a really mighty tool, but that comes with a cost. To create a TypeChecker the Program first has to locate, read, parse and bind all SourceFiles referenced.
 To avoid that cost, try to avoid the TypeChecker where possible.

 There are serveral methods that have an optional parameter `sourceFile`. Don't omit this parameter if you care for performance.

+__Bonus points:__ If you know the width of the node (either from the `text` property or because it is a keyword of known width),
 you can use `node.getEnd() - width` to calculate the node's start.
 `node.getEnd()` is effectively for free as it only returns the `end` property. This way you avoid the cost of skipping leading trivia.
 
 ### Make use of tail calls
 Tail calls are function or method calls at the end of the control flow of a function. It's only a tail call if the return value of that call
 is directly returned unchanged. Browsers can optimize this pattern for performance.
 Further optimization is specced in ES2015 as "Proper Tail Calls".
-With proper tail calls the browser reuses the stack frame of the current function. When done right this allows for infinite recursion.
