Rasmus talks are always good talks, and this one did not disappoint.
PHP Performance
Rasmus Lerdorf (Mar 11, 2010 at 08:30)
Talk at ConFoo.ca Web Techno Conference (English - US)
There has been a lot of interest in PHP performance lately spurred by
Facebook's HipHop PHP announcement in February. Most people don't know
how fast their site is and will make uninformed architecture decisions
or spend time optimizing the wrong things based mostly on myths and
innuendo. This talk will try to get you started down the path of a
systematic approach to benchmarking, profiling and optimizing your
entire web site.

Awesome talk, as always from Rasmus. He stepped through a process of augmenting performance of an application (Wordpress in this case). Including the use of HipHop, with some real serious discussions of when/whether HipHop is for you or not.

I think the talks should be always different from one year to another. The same talk 2 years in a row is not sexy :) especially for those who pay 600 bugs to see the same thing.

tinaa - same talk 2 years in a row? Rasmus wasn't even at the conference last year, and half his talk was on HipHop which was released in March 2010. So...
