BACKGROUNDFX_API_KEY=your-api-key-here
BACKGROUNDFX_API_URL=https://api.backgroundfx.pro/v1
```

### In Code
```python
client = BackgroundFXClient(api_key="your-api-key-here")
```

## 📊 Performance Tips

### Batch Processing
- Use batch endpoints for multiple images
- Process in parallel when possible
- Implement retry logic with exponential backoff

### Quality Settings
- `low` - Fast processing, good for previews
- `medium` - Balanced quality/speed
- `high` - Professional quality
- `ultra` - Maximum quality

### Model Selection
- `rembg` - Fast, general purpose
- `u2net` - High quality, good for products
- `sam2` - Best quality, slower
- `auto` - Let API choose

## 🔧 Common Issues

### Rate Limiting
```python
# Implement exponential backoff
import time

def retry_with_backoff(func, max_retries=3):
    for i in range(max_retries):
        try:
            return func()
        except RateLimitError:
            wait_time = 2 ** i
            time.sleep(wait_time)
    raise Exception("Max retries exceeded")
```

### Large Files
```python
# Compress before upload
from PIL import Image

def compress_image(path, max_size_mb=10):
    img = Image.open(path)
    img.thumbnail((4096, 4096))
    img.save(path, optimize=True, quality=85)
```

### Memory Management
```python
# Process in chunks for large batches
def process_in_chunks(images, chunk_size=10):
    for i in range(0, len(images), chunk_size):
        chunk = images[i:i+chunk_size]
        process_batch(chunk)
```
