+## Agenda
+
+## Announcements
+
+ * Node URL got ~30% faster thanks to Miguel (referencing https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/46227)
+
+### nodejs/node
+
+* Start time performance regression when upgrading from 16.x to 18.x [#45662](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/45662)
+  * The issue is fixed on the main branch and Node 19. 
+  * Working on a backport to Node 18.
+
+### nodejs/performance
+
+* Node errors are very slow to create [#40](https://github.com/nodejs/performance/issues/40)
+  * A lot of dependencies are starting to *not* use cancellable apis because of the performance issues.
+  * Custom optimization for abort signal/abort event can be done (@ronag)
+  * Adding and removing the event handler might be the issue.
+  * If someone is interested in this, Robert is happy to guide them.
+
+* Module resolution [#39](https://github.com/nodejs/performance/issues/39)
+  * Marvin diagnosed an issue with file system operations and the impact.
+  * **Very** big part of module resolution is lost on creating errors.
+  * Async methods might be improved.
+  * Yagiz is happy to add `fs.isFile` kind of API if needed.
+  * Joyee has some insights/recommendations for the fs.statSync improvement.
+  * The “throw and catch an error even when it’s useless” behavior has an old deprecation TODO. If we remove it then the performance issue would also go away.
+  * It’s possible to add options parameter to `fs.existsSync` for checking if it’s a file/directory.
+
+* Add support for V8 fast call [#23](https://github.com/nodejs/performance/issues/23)
+  * Can we add v8 support to Node-API?
+
+* Buffer.toString vs TextDecoder [#18](https://github.com/nodejs/performance/issues/18)
+  * Let’s improve the docs to use TextDecoder for certain cases of Buffer.toString
+
+* fetch [#11](https://github.com/nodejs/performance/issues/11)
+  * Rafael has invested some time on this, and improved it.
+
+* WHATWG Streams [#9](https://github.com/nodejs/performance/issues/9)
+  * Skipping because Rafael is not at the meeting.
+
+* Buffer.(read|write)(U)Int(LE|BE)(8|16|32) [#2](https://github.com/nodejs/performance/issues/2)
+  * Robert invested some time on this, and theoretically it is possible to use DataView to improve writeInt32LE and readInt32LE implementations.
+  * James (@jasnell) might help with this.
