Very nice! It's like a generic StreamQueue. > > Doing it in parallel would mean to keep a lot of those data events in > memory, taking away one of the main benefits of using streams. > Oh, ok! So one advantage of streams is that only a small Buffer object lives in memory during the "data" event. While if you for instance read a very large file with readFile() you get at the end a very large string in memory. It's kind of obvious since that's why we "stream" video, but I hadn't thought about it. Thanks!
