[lugm.org] Upcoming meetup

[Avinash Meetoo]

Hi,

My 2 cts:

Performance tuning is hard as there are so many places where things can be
suboptimal: the datacenter, the server, the software stack, the database,
the application, the HTTP headers being exchanged between the server and
clients, etc, etc.

Maybe the best thing to do is to submit a bug report to the technical team
at Defi Media (Yasin Karimbocus (webmaster at defimedia.info) is the
webmaster) whenever someone comes across a problem.
