Not certain how much these small tweaks will improve performance but this PR could serve at least to raise some awareness.
Using useSelect is not without costs. Everytime you return a value from useSelect,

  • make sure that this value is needed for rendering and not for event handlers (otherwise the selector call can be moved to the event handler instead)
  • make sure it's not a value that changes often and cause too frequent rerenders. For example, getBlockIndex change often for blocks after the current selection. (Everytime a new block is added or removed)

Seems like we're gaining 3ms out of 30ms in terms of typing. That's a 10% improvement for this tiny PR.

@youknowriad These are great tips! Would it be helpful to have some performance tips documented, either as part of the @wordpress/data docs or in a new docs page? Happy to collect these and start putting something together.

@chrisvanpatten Definitely, I'm not really certain what's the best place for it, could be this page https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/principles/architecture/performance/ but I'd love to see these documented and other tips people have.
