Virtual machines do not need to be slow. They do not even need to be slower than running native code.
Look at how Java uses it's JVM middleman to optimize your code and make it faster—way faster.
Learn about code hoisting, dead-code elimination, loop unrolling, hierarchy flattening, call location caching, escape analysis, array bounds check elimination, and many other JVM tricks that can make
your code more efficient and offer peak performance.

IO is slow; memory is fast. For many applications, the main performance and scalability bottleneck is disk and network access.
This session will cover strategies that can help you utilize your RAM efficiently, even in a distributed environment. We will touch on how a clustering solution like Terracotta can help with reducing overall
application latency.

Did you know your JDK contains visual monitoring tools with features like: Profiler, Visual GC, Heap dump browsing, and much more? VisualVM, BTrace, and jhat are just some of the useful performance diagnostics tools hiding in your JDK. Join us for this session to see what tools are out there and how can you use them to identify and solve performance-related issues.
