At this meeting:
- William Melgaard talked about valdrind, a programming tool for memory debugging, memory leak detection, and profiling.
- More discussion about the major update of Firefox to 57 and the huge performance gains and caveats. Mark Davis showed how the about:config "media.autoplay.enabled" set to false can stop annoying automatic video playback and with minimal side-effects in Firefox since addons that did this in the past are now not compatible.
- Alan Dudley talked about uMatrix, an advanced Firefox plugin that allows point-and-click filtering of net requests according to source, destination and type
- Some discussion about dns and the "Unbound" DNS server.
