On March 24th, 2007 Lullabot hosted the [Performance and Scalability Seminar](https://www.lullabot.com/seminar/drupal_performance_and_scalability/sunnyvale_ca_2007) in Sunnyvale California the day after the [OSCMS Summit](http://2007.oscms-summit.org/). The panel spent the day evaluating the role each part of the software stack plays in performance and scalability. To continue the discussions we've made our slides available for download. Enjoy!
