In my case, we heavily rely on the stability and performance of the BigFix REST API and our automation send continuos and sometimes expensive queries against it.
We have seen slow responses when the automation hits the api during a prod deployment of patching actions. We have programmatically throttled down the number of continuous calls to avoid requests to get delayed. Even after using a dedicated Web Reports for this we continue seeing performance issues. We are in the progress of renewing and sizing up our BigFix infra but still after that I think decoupling the api from other components may improve the stability and performance of our environment.
