Memcached Hackathon in Sunnyvale

We nicknamed Chris Goffinet, one of our engineers, Optimus for a reason. Chris lives and breathes optimization and has managed to squeeze an amazing amount of performance from our machines. On a fairly regular basis he'll come in after the weekend and throw out an off-handed comment like, "Oh yeah, i just wrote a little routine that'll give us twice the capacity that we had before,"
Chris' latest interest is in memcached and to share his passion and bring other like-minded engineers together he's hosting an all-night pow-wow with other memcached groupies over at the Yahoo! HQ in Sunnyvale.
If you're around on December 14-15 13-14 for an all-night, pizza-fueled hackathon, swing on by.
If you've never heard of memcached, or things like "pluggable storage backends," stay home, watch a movie, while the engineers take over the world.
