Abstract: 

In this presentation, we will demonstrate that the Linux kernel is not always responsible for application performance problems. We will review various techniques that can be used to investigate application performance issues. The audience will learn how to write cache-friendly code to optimize application performance and how to use compilation flags to achieve further performance optimizations.

I am a Software Engineer in System Internals Team at Bloomberg. Our team is working on certifying new Linux kernels and related subsystems, troubleshooting performance issues and developing tools for performance analysis. Outside of work, I enjoy reading, listening to classical music, and travelling with my family around the world.
