Up and Running with Node.js

When we talk about performance what do we mean? There are many metrics that matter in different scenarios but it's difficult to measure them all. Tom Hughes-Croucher looks at what performance is achievable with Node today, which metrics matter and how to pick the ones that most matter to you. Most importantly he looks at why metrics don't matter as much as you think and the critical decision making involved in picking a programming language, a framework, or even just the way you write code.

Speaker
