📅 📓 Plan the next Berlin.ex meetup

Berlin.ex Elixir User Group

What's in here?

We want the Berlin.ex meetup as open and transparent as possible. That's why the whole organization of the user group takes place in public. In this repository, we are going to plan the regular meetups, collect and discuss ideas, search for new venues, speakers, and maybe sponsors.

Contribute!

If you want to contribute to the meetup, please feel free to do so and jump in on this repo's issue page. There you can find (or just open) an issue per meetup. In that issue, we talk about the format, location and generalities. Also, if you want to invite the Berlin.ex group to your company, just jump in; we are happy to see new supporters. In case you want to propose a talk, also jump in and open an issue. Last but not least, feel free to join forces on a regular meetups issue.

We value every contribution!

[talk suggestion] How fast is it really? Benchmarking in practice

I gave this talk at Elixirlive and it was generally well received. It's general benchmarking advice intertwined with samples and benchee sample code.

My first talk at elixir.berlin months ago was a little impromptu benchee talk without much preparation, it has grown considerably since then so I'd like to share general benchmarking knowledge and an update on benchee :)

Abstract

“What’s the fastest way of doing this?” - you might ask yourself during development. Sure, you can guess what’s fastest or how long something will take, but do you know? How long does it take to sort a list of 1 Million elements? Are tail-recursive functions always the fastest?

Benchmarking is here to answer these questions. However, there are many pitfalls around setting up a good benchmark and interpreting the results. This talk will guide you through, introduce best practices and show you some surprising benchmarking results along the way.

moved from Trello - suggestion from @PragTob
