The slides for my talk on "APC & Memcache the High Performance Duo" are now available here: Barcelona_APC_MEM2010.pdf. Thanks to all the attendees for listening and asking questions, hopefully there are a few converts to APC/Memcached resulting from this talk ;-).

Just finished my talk on the "Hidden Features of PHP" at the PHP Barcelona conference. First time me giving this particular talk, which I think (hope) went pretty well. Big thanks to all the attendees for being there, especially those to braved the large crowd and asked questions. The slides from the talk are now available online and can be downloaded at: barcelona_2010_hidden_features.pdf

In a few days I will attempt one of my most tricky conference schedules in a long while (perhaps ever), I get the feeling a vacation will be in order after all this. It was a privilege to get my talks accepted accepted at the PHP Barcelona Conference 2010 in Barcelona, Spain where I will be speaking about Hidden Features of PHP as well as APC & Memcached. Then I get to fly home to Toronto for about 24 hours, and from there travel to ZendCon in Santa Clara, California, where I get to speak about the (awesome) Memcached extension and some more Hidden Features of PHP. Then I fly back to Toronto, for roughly 36 hours, after which I depart to Paris, France to speak at the Forum PHP organized by AFUP to talk about APC & Memcached. Should be fun ;-)
