Two fun talks this month, hard-core web performance and continuous deployment.
Making fast websites - a deep dive into high scale web performance
Sam Saffron of StackOverflow (@samsaffron)
Sam strides boldly into the murky waters of performance, and reveals essential steps to improve your own sites, armed with tools such as MiniProfiler, HAProxy logging and analysis using Data Explorer and even a bit of Dapper!
