The text discusses the advantages of using prepared statements in Couchbase, building on a previous conversation about their performance benefits. The author shares a practical analysis using a control loop to simulate load on Couchbase with the travel-sample dataset, examining various query types including parameterized queries, different predicate strategies, and a mix of indexed and non-indexed fields. The findings indicate significant performance improvements with prepared statements, although limitations remain when full primary index scans are necessary. Overall, the author advocates for the use of prepared statements to enhance performance in most situations.
