Different conference, but basically the same talk. :)

I had very little time to find a way, time and place to film + edit and 
upload, so a more complex picture-in-picture would have required more 
work. Also, the slides as a PDF are available for conference-goers, so 
it didn't seem like a problem to any of the live viewers. It's a shame 
that LCA uploads don't contain a link to the slides [1].

We'll still have to see how the new datastructure improves the runtime 
for non-Rust (or partial Rust) paths. This hasn't been implemented yet, 
but the difference for a pure Rust path is 154ms vs 44ms for the same 
repo and machine when comparing the old structure to the new, if you 
find those numbers interesting.
