You are optimizing a large list where each item has its own click handler. Instead of attaching handlers to each item, you want to improve performance. What approach should you take?

To improve performance when dealing with a large list of items, each with its own click handler, you should implement event delegation. This involves attaching a single event handler to a common ancestor of the list items. This way, you can handle all click events efficiently without the overhead of attaching individual handlers to each item. The other options are not effective performance optimization strategies in this context.
