Summary

Jason Moiron, a Software Engineer at Datadog, presented "Go Faster: Optimizing Go Programs" at GopherCon India last month. The presentation covered various optimization techniques explored by Datadog in the past year, including using the Go profiler, benchmarking with test runs, examining runtime behavior, utilizing cgo and compiler optimizations, leveraging Go's Assembly Support, and delving into implementation details of maps, channels, the runtime, and the select statement. These techniques aim to improve performance metrics visibility for Go programs, and viewers can learn more by signing up for a free trial of Datadog.
