(I'm asking on behalf of a co-worked in Israel who is very interested<br>
in the subject, but since I couldn't attend and am also interested I<br>
too am hoping there is.)<br>

>> This month, we have Jim Baker from Boulder, CO giving us a talk on python<br>

>> Speaker Bio:<br>
>> Jim Baker has 15 years of professional software development experience,<br>
>> focusing on business intelligence, enterprise system management, and<br>
>> high-performance web applications. He is a member at the Python Software<br>
>> Foundation, a committer on Jython, and a frequent speaker at pyCon on python<br>

>> Abstract:<br>
>> You have great unit tests. Your Python code is correct, or at least as<br>
>> much as you can tell with your testing. Now you may want to optimize the<br>
>> performance of some of that code, so as to improve the user experience,<br>

>> apply some proven techniques for optimizing Python performance. First we<br>

>> first. Then we will examine a variety of optimization strategies, from small<br>
>> optimizations, to using better algorithms and more appropriate data<br>
>> structures, to the impact of using a better fitting (or perhaps more<br>
>> well-written) library, and more. And we will look at what exactly you may<br>
>> want to optimize, whether that is response time, throughput, or various<br>
>> other related metrics, and how to appropriately balance. Lastly, as it comes<br>
>> up, we will also discuss some of the differences between the various<br>

>> Agenda-<br>
>> 6:30p - 7:00p Pizza and Networking<br>
>> 7:00p - 8:30p Main talk / Q&A<br>
>> Please RSVP so we know how much food to order ;-)<br>
