We’re planing to use context variable (jwt_claims_sub) to add header in all api.
So we have a question that, is enabling and doing so impact performance? (as something like using Virtual Endpoint)
Honestly the overhead introduced is so small we’re considered just having context variables on by default. As always the best way to find your own performance tolerances is through benchmarking your environment through each scenario.
Hope this helps!

Sorry, I have more question from the team.
Is enabling context variables makes tyk store more information anywhere e.g. redis?
It will be in mem on the gateway that processes the request.
