Internally at cloud9, we use the smith protocol.  It's based on the
same idea of dnode, but has restricted abilities so that it can be
leak-proof using normal javascript (dnode requires --harmony to
prevent leaks) and very fast.  We usually use the protocol over
msgpack + tcp between servers (or over the stdio channel of an ssh
connection to a remote server).
