I'm working on a React application and I've noticed that some of my components are re-rendering unnecessarily. What are the best practices for optimizing React component performance? I've heard about React.memo, useMemo, and useCallback, but I'm not sure when and how to use them effectively.

There are several key strategies for optimizing React components:

1. **React.memo**: Use this for functional components that shouldn't re-render when props haven't changed.

2. **useMemo**: Memoize expensive calculations.

3. **useCallback**: Memoize function references to prevent child re-renders.

4. **Code splitting**: Use React.lazy() for component-level code splitting.

Here's an example of using React.memo:

```jsx
const MyComponent = React.memo(({ data }) => {
return
{data.name}
;
});
```
