Tall vs Wide Trees

A tree's height and balance impact efficiency and performance, as seen with Binary Search Trees. Consider self-balancing BSTs to maintain a minimum height and fast operations.

Deep DOM trees in CSS can be problematic. Large and nested trees result in expensive style recalculations, affecting performance and responsiveness.

  • To decrease issues with styling, keep the DOM tree shallow and wide
  • Self-balancing BSTs can also help reduce tree height and improve performance
  • With a shallow and wide DOM tree, style recalculations are quicker, improving app response time
