Come see why the most powerful tool in your stack is likely the one you’re already running. ## ​\*\*[Nadav (Kremer) Beker](https://www.linkedin.com/in/nadav-kremer/overlay/about-this-profile/) \|\*\* Tech Lead at **Finonex**\| **How Observability Killed My Performance** ​Logs, traces, metrics, correlation IDs — observability promises clarity when systems get complex. But in Node.js, these tools are not free, and used without care they can become a serious performance bottleneck. In this talk, I’ll share real-world lessons from production Node.js systems where adding observability actually degraded performance. We’ll look at the hidden costs of logging, async logging, AsyncLocalStorage, distributed tracing, and high-cardinality metrics — and why these issues often only appear under real load. ​ ​-------------- Kindly be informed that attendance at the meetup is on a first-come, first-served basis until capacity is reached.
