PerfView: The Ultimate .NET Performance Tool
PerfView is a free, standalone, small-impact tool produced by the CLR team that helps in performance investigations. It offers several unique features for understanding large performance reports, such as sampling, pattern folding, differencing, and grouping. You can use it for ETW analysis on large-scale Windows servers as well as low-end client devices and phones -- and you can even use it as a general-purpose analysis tool for Linux performance traces. In this session we will use PerfView to systematically measure and improve CPU time, wall-clock time, and memory usage (yes, PerfView can solve memory leaks as well!).

Cluster Consensus: When Aeron Met Raft
Consensus protocols enable distributed systems to agree a common view of shared state. This common view allows a cluster to continue service while a majority of its members are available. Raft was designed to be understandable. Raft succeeded in this goal and became popular. Aeron was designed...

High Performance Actors
Typically, when looking at performance, organisations look at it in terms of resource utilisation. One way Akka actors stand out is by using resources very efficiently, while also maintaining the Reactive Principles such as resilience, i.e. the ability to react to failure in a non-catastrophic,...
