When benchmarking Common Node, which uses fibers, I found it to have 60-80% 
of the throughput of pure Node and use 10-15% more memory. More details 
here:

Keep in mind that Common Node adds additional overhead due to to the use of 
wrapper objects & adding/removing a bunch of listeners on every Stream 
"data" event.
