Speaker: Nat Duca, Software Engineer - Google Title: The Pursuit of 60fps Everywhere  Bio: Nat Duca is an engineer on the Chrome team working to make an always-60fps, jank free mobile web a reality. Abtract: If you want to move something at 60fps today, you must apply a littany of tricks, especially translateZ and friends. If you make a mistake, off the fast path ye shall go. On the Chrome team we think this sucks. Throughout the last year, we've been digging through examples of mobile UIs built with web technology, hunting down bottlenecks and trying to soften up these fast paths so easy, simple effects hit 60fps without breaking a sweat. We envision a world where, just as JS speed improvements killed the "which is faster, whiles or for loops" question, that the intuitive HTML way to do an effect can also reliably hit 60fps. In the talk, we'll share what we've learned so far (lots!), what we're doing about it (stuff!), and where we'd like to go next in pursuit of this vision. Speaker: Addy Osmani, Developer Programs Engineer - Google, @addyosmani Title: Memory Management Masterclass  Bio: Addy is a senior engineer on the Chrome web engineering team, focusing on tools to help improve developer productivity and satisfaction. He works on Polymer - a Web Component library, is the the lead engineer on Yeoman and Web Starter Kit and regularly writes about web application architecture and the front-end. Outside of Google, Addy enjoys both hacking on open-source projects like TodoMVC and Grunt-UnCSS. He has authored books on JavaScript design patterns and frameworks.  Abstract: Efficient JavaScript webapps need to be fluid and fast. Any app with significant user interaction needs to consider how to effectively keep memory usage down because if too much is consumed, a page might be killed, forcing the user to reload it and cry in a corner. Automatic garbage collection isn't a substitute for effective memory management, especially in large, long-running web apps. In this talk we'll walk through how to master the Chrome DevTools for effective memory management. Learn how to tackle performance issues like memory leaks, frequent garbage collection pauses, and overall memory bloat that can really drag you down. 


Speaker: Patrick Hamann, Senior Engineer - the Guardian, @patrickhamann Title: Breaking News at 1000ms  Bio: Patrick is a senior client-side engineer at the Guardian in London where – amongst other things – he is helping to build the next generation of their web platform. When not speaking or ranting about performance on twitter he enjoys spending his spare time discovering new food and craft beer.  Abstract: As The Guardian prepare to launch their next generation news website, join Client-Side Engineer Patrick Hamann as he details the performance pitfalls and bottlenecks from networking to rendering their team has had to break through in order to deliver the latest news hot off the press and straight to the browser within the psychologically important 1000ms barrier.
