B Correct answer
Explanation

Client-side data caching artificially improves performance test results because cached responses avoid server requests entirely. This masks true server capacity and response times. Unlike production where users have diverse cache states, performance tests should reflect worst-case uncached scenarios to accurately measure server capabilities.
