Node.js Performance Optimization Case Study

Bryce Baril, NodeSource

There are great tools available for performance optimization of Node.js code, but it's not always clear when or how to use them.

In this session, Bryce Baril will present a case study to demonstrate some useful Node.js performance analysis tools and how to use them and understand their results. A wide range of tooling will be explored, from generic kernel-level tooling, to V8 tracing tooling, to V8 compiler tooling in a quest to optimize some Node.js code.
