+### Some recommendations to improve latency
+- Sanic Workers must be mapped 1:1 to CPU for both Rasa Pro and Rasa Action Server
+- Create `async` actions to avoid any blocking I/O
+- `enable_selective_domain: true` : Domain is only sent for actions that needs it. This massively trims the payload between the two pods.
+- Consider using compute efficient machines on cloud which are optimized for high performance computing such as the C5 instances on AWS.
+  However, as they are low on memory, models need to be trained lightweight.
