SESSION ON-DEMAND

All Things P99

The event for developers who care about P99 percentiles and high-performance, low-latency applications

Queues, Hockey Sticks and Performance

Queues: both a blessing and a curse in computer science. They help predict performance but also signal overload. This talk explores their role in diagnosis, capacity planning, and development using physics concepts and the “hockey-stick” curve. Master queue intuition for better programs.
