This is the question which always confuse me, so i decided that i'm asking you. What i mean is that i have a Node server, and an SQL database in the backend, and a redux store on the frontend. The main component fetches every time it did mount, processes the response, and dispatch it to the store. All what the user see depending on the store. So if a change happens, it gets uploaded to the database through the server, but if this change happens on the main component's child component, the state isn't gets uploaded to the store because the main component isn't do mount. Let me show what i mean:

The above code just an illustration what i mean. Obviously the second solution looks better, but in my code's state i need to loop through 3 arrays to find the target element. But the amount of items are unknown both in the database, and both in the state. If i get the items from the database it gets processed with 2 maps, and then a sort. If i want to search the target item, as i mentioned, i need to do 3 nested loops to find the target element.

I know there's no "golden answer" to this question, but i want to know when to use which. Are there big differences between these methods (in performance)?

what you're probably going to want to do is something like this:

Your backend state and your frontend state should be kept consistent, but you shouldn't NEED to request from the backend to have the state be the same. just make the changes to your store as needed after the backend requests go through. Your GET_ALL should only need to run once on component mount which will then set your stores initial state. After that you'll be modifying the store directly and the backend directly as well.

//child component

and then in your reducer:
