Generally, use PUT when you want to UPDATE something and use POST when you want to CREATE something. Is there something specific that you are looking to see in the documentation?

Besides the CRUD principles and their associated HTTP methods, is there any implementation difference, eg. performance gain, when initially using POST with FAST and then switching to PUT when making modifications at a later stage?

Based on the docs and my tests both methods are interchangeable. Hence a clarification in the documentation would be appreciated.
