YUI Theater — Nicholas Zakas, Stoyan Stefanov, Ross Harmes, Julien Lecomte, Matt Sweeney: "High Performance JavaScript" (92 min.)
The April 2010 edition of the BayJax meetup at Yahoo! featured five speakers, all of whom are co-authors on the new High Performance JavaScript volume from O'Reilly (free chapter available here). There were about 200 attendees filling the URLs Cafe in the heart of Yahoo!, and they heard five distinctly interesting takes on web-app performance.
