Worldwide Drupal Happy Hour at Barbara's at the Brewery
Join us on the last Wednesday of every month for Drupal happy hour! We're meeting this time between 5:00-6:30pm on June 25th, 2014, at Barbara's at the Brewery.
There are no sponsors or presentations at this event. Just dinner, drinks and Drupal. Worldwide Drupal Happy Hour is on the last Wednesday of every month and is observed all around the world. Sister events include happy hours in San Diego, Portland, Oregon and New York City.
This particular happy hour event is just prior to the Open Members Meeting the same evening at 7pm at Droplabs, the world's Top Drupal Location. Everyone is welcome to attend either or both events.

Howdy fellow LA Drupaleros.
Read moreDowntown Drupal Meetup at Droplabs and via Webcast on July 1, 2014: Show & Tell
The 1st Tuesday of the month is coming up again and it's time for another Downtown Drupal Meetup! Join us at Droplabs near Downtown Los Angeles on Tuesday, July 1, 2014 between 7-9pm Pacific. This meetup is free and there will be food, drinks, and raffle prizes!
Those who would like to attend remotely are welcome to join us via webcast.
Are you new to Drupal or the Downtown Drupal meetup? Come learn about Drupal and how others like yourself are using it for their project, business or organization. We promise not to talk down to you.
At this meetup we're having a Drupal Show & Tell. After some quick introductions and light news and announcements, we'll be going into 5-minute presentations (called lightning talks) on what each attendee is working on. Everyone who attends will be expected to present on something.
Did you recently attend a great Drupal or tech event that you want to tell us about? Are you currently having a problem that you need help with? Did you solve a problem recently and now have a solution to share with the group? You'll have up to 5 minutes to present and then up to 5 more minutes for Q&A with the other attendees. We'll be using a chess clock to make sure that everyone has enough time.
That's right, it's like Drupal speed chess! (The difference, of course, is that we're not really competing. We're here to share and learn and not "smack down" anybody.)

Read moreThis is a very well organized and informative session. We got a good mix of senior developers and new comers and some in between. It is a pretty good turn out with 11 people considering it is in Pasadena right around rush hours. People are just terrific, very friendly and ready to help others. Feels like I have moved forward by leaps and bounds. Thanks everyone!
High latency with loading images
Hi there, have a website which seems to have very high latency with rendering images.
There is nothing special going on here, images are fields on content. Rendered using no Image style, from the same server, from the default path on the drive, anonymous users, performance caching is set to enabled, cache cleared, nothing in the logs, TOP from the prompt shows tons of free memory but I am getting lags of 12second latency on loading image assets even though the rest of the page loads fine.
Phpini shows 140MB of memory set.
What are other possible causes for this?
Thanks,
Seb.
