Jake Wharton: Eliminating Code Overhead

The CPU, RAM, and disk are finite resources that are often taken for granted as unbounded. Not only is this obviously untrue, but the use of these resources directly affects the most important resource on a mobile device: the battery. This talk will focus on techniques that both libraries and applications can implement to ensure their effect is in general without overhead.

Jake Wharton: Square Cash, Open Source, and French bulldogs.

Pierre-Yves Ricau: Detect all memory leaks with LeakCanary!

In just a few few weeks, we reduced by 94% the OutOfMemoryError crashes in the Square Register Android app. We built squ.re/leakcanary to automatically detect memory leaks and make it very easy to fix them. This talk will cover the principles as well as the underlying implementation details. We'll dig into a few interesting examples and lessons learned.

Pierre-Yves Ricau is an Android Baker at Square who enjoys good wine and low entropy code.
