Lambdas Benchmarking Hackday with Goldman Sachs

With the release of Java 8 Lambdas, there is considerable interest in the performance of Lambda expressions.

Goldman Sachs have developed a high-performance collections library, which has already been forward-ported to Lambdas.

Join Donald Raab (Goldman Sachs), Richard Warburton (jClarity) & Ben Evans (jClarity) as we discuss microbenchmarking (MBMs), the different tradeoffs present in library development (as opposed to app dev) & what we may expect from JDK 8 lambdas & libraries built on top of them.

We will explore performance benchmarks in the form of hands-on katas developed by GS for their Collections libraries & consider how these ideas can be extended to cover JDK 8 Lambdas & beyond.

This event is graciously sponsored & hosted by Oracle.
