Depending on the needs of your application, in the extreme case the most 
performant way of handling this will probably be to tie into the native API 
and use libuv to queue work in a thread. Once that work has completed you 
would call a callback and return the results.

This will also be the most complicated solution, so I'd only recommend 
going this route if absolutely necessary.
