From October, 17-18th, XPages Performance MasterClass took place at the IBM Labs in Dublin, Ireland. The event was sponsored by IBM; only transportation and hotel had to be paid by attendees.

40+ people from all over Europe ( Germany, Austria, Italy, Greece, Sweden, Czech Republic … ) gathered together for all things XPages Performance optimization.

Maire Kehoe, Martin Donnelly and Tony McGuckin did an excellent job sharing their knowledge. They provided  4 deep dive sessions each of the two days,  covering all aspects of the JSF lifecycle, partial refresh / exectution mode, design patterns and Java debugging, just to name a few of many topics.

Eamon Muldoon from IBM Ireland said, that his team setup this masterclass on top of their daily job. Aside from preparing the next major release launch and working on PMRs and also new stuff, they prepared all the content, slides and samples to cover almost 16 hours.

All I can say after 2 days packed with first class information is “Thank You!!”.  It was great to have the opportunity to attend this event.
