Leistungsoptimierung
```bash
Optimize Git status checking
git config --global oh-my-zsh.hide-dirty 1 git config --global oh-my-zsh.hide-status 1
Disable unnecessary plugins
plugins=( git # Remove unused plugins )
Use faster alternatives
Replace 'z' with 'fasd' for better performance
Use 'fast-syntax-highlighting' instead of 'zsh-syntax-highlighting'
Lazy load heavy plugins
Add to ~/.zshrc
lazy_load_plugin() \\{ local plugin_name=$1 local plugin_path="$ZSH_CUSTOM/plugins/$plugin_name"
if [[ -d "$plugin_path" ]]; then
source "$plugin_path/$plugin_name.plugin.zsh"
fi
\\}

Best Practices
Konfigurationsorganisation
```bash
Organize ~/.zshrc sections
1. Oh My Zsh configuration
export ZSH="$HOME/.oh-my-zsh" ZSH_THEME="powerlevel10k/powerlevel10k" plugins=(git docker kubectl python node)
2. Oh My Zsh initialization
source $ZSH/oh-my-zsh.sh
3. User configuration
export EDITOR='vim' export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH
4. Custom aliases and functions
source $ZSH_CUSTOM/aliases.zsh source $ZSH_CUSTOM/functions.zsh
5. Tool-specific configuration
[ -f ~/.fzf.zsh ] && source ~/.fzf.zsh ```_
Sicherheitsüberlegungen
```bash
Secure history
chmod 600 ~/.zsh_history
Avoid storing sensitive data in history
setopt HIST_IGNORE_SPACE # Commands starting with space not saved
Use secure plugins only
Verify plugin sources before installation
Regularly update plugins
Environment variable security
Don't store secrets in .zshrc
Use external secret management
```_
Performance Best Practices
```bash
Minimal plugin set for better performance
plugins=( git sudo colored-man-pages extract )
Lazy load heavy plugins
Use async where possible
Profile startup time regularly
Clean up unused plugins and themes
```_
