Sometimes, object creation is heavyweight and requires a lot of resources, creating a new instance will impact the performance. In such cases, a prototype design pattern is used which refers to creating duplicate objects. In prototype design pattern, if a similar object is already present then cloning is done keeping performance in mind.
