Ha yes, it is on the website. You'll find here an article about that, and how Go do much better because of goroutines : http://blog.bitcartel.com/2012/05/nodejs-cpu-blocking-thing.html I'd be very interested to know how D compare to that, for example with vide.d ? |

I keep hearing about this popular "node.js" thing, so I finally looked it up just now. JavaScript on the server-side?!? WTF?!?! Like having PHP on a server isn't *enough* pain, now they gotta add in the second-worst language, too? That's a great article, though. Interesting, intelligent and very well-written. I'm very curious how the vibe.d author would respond to the argument against embedded HTTP servers. |

I will only use node.js if I am ever forced to do so.
There isn't a single node.js feature that it is not available in more
mature runtimes/OS.
It is only a mean for cool kids that are only able to use JavaScript, to
try to code server side applications.
I'll give it one, max two years until the fad wears off.

After all, look at the longevity PHP and Flash ended up having. On the web, the worse the technology, the more it will be adopted. That seems to be the way it generally works. Give it five, maybe ten years, then we'll start seeing a trend toward articles like "Node.js: A fractal of bad design" My bet is the only thing that will squeeze node.js out of the way will be the next big dumb idea. I hope I'm wrong. |

Is that argument mentioned in the article? I didn't see it.. but maybe I skimmed over it too fast.
In general, the current model is single-threaded I/O + worker threads + multiple processes behind a load balancer. However, it's planned for v1.0 to support distribution of connection handler fibers to a thread pool, so that explicit worker threads are not strictly necessary anymore. This would be the Go model in principle.

This would be the Go model in principle. I'd love to see that. I think vide.d have a bright future ! |

Looks like it runs on Node.js :)
Why so slow?
