tmpvar as conductor
Since you say it works fast locally and slow over internet, I'm guessing
the issue is bandwidth and internet latency. If the node proceess isn't
maxing out a cpu core, it's probably not the bottleneck. You may need to
change your architecture not your runtime. For example use node to set up
p2p
You can use the TCP client directly and hand-roll the http request. Your
response won't be parsed as http (nor would you want to in the error case),
but you can write a crude parser in js to get the bulk of it.

Depending on where node fails you might be able to use the underlying
http_parser bindings directly. Look in http.js in the node source to see
how it's used.

Node can easily call other processes and has full control over the stdio
streams if desired. (or there are convenience wrappers if you don't need
full control) Look at the child_process APIs.

Unless it's changed recently, dropping in various versions of V8 are pretty
safe in node. The V8 team doesn't change APIs that often, and usually it's
adding new APIs, not breaking existing ones. I've never heard of v8-i18n,
so I don't know how well that tracks. I would hope it's API compatible
I've never used http://locomotivejs.org/, but node itself is quite powerful
for nearly any web project when coded with enough skill.
If the question is if node itself has enough potential, then the answer is
that, yes, node is plenty powerful.
But practically speaking, the framework you use and
If the amount of data is small enough that it can all be kept in ram, a
simple custom database using large node buffers would work great.
I would use msgpack or some other compact serialization to store the data
in the buffer efficiently.
If it's too large for memory, then a single append-only
To further explain this. This is what node calls an async function. It's
supposed to be the analogue to a sync function, except that it doesn't
block the program (the call to fs.readFile will return right away).
If this was a sync function (and in fact, there is a sync version of this
one), it
Node uses a lot depending on what that means. Besides the actual amount
of buffer data you app logic keeps in ram, node itself uses about 10Mb
overhead for the bare process. Also the GC is optimized more for speed
than memeory usage. It doesn't really start freeing till it feels memory
Great work! I've been wanting something like this for a long time. One
quick question though. Is it possible to both spawn a child process and
use it's stdio as raw binary data (no tty metadata) *and* spawn a tty
powered child (like bash -l) in the same connection? I never could find a

Adam, I'm glad you're still using that code! Out of curiosity, have you
