In previous articles, I talked about NodeJS internals, why NodeJS is so fast, V8 internals and its optimization tricks. That’s cool, but… Understanding these things is not enough to write high-performance NodeJS applications. You still need to know, how to profile your NodeJS…
Last time, I showed you how to profile your application and find the place which slows it down — bottleneck. It helps a lot with finding the place in the code that executes slow, so you can fix that.
Recently, I find out about a strange bug in V8. Everyone is discussing it in Twitter, Facebook, Gitter and other social networks. So, I’m going to explain a little bit about it.
Hi there! Some of you want to or thought about contributing into NodeJS core but don’t know how to do it or don’t have enough confidence. Well, I’ll try to help you out with that.
Recently, I faced an issue with requiring native bindings in JavaScript code so I started researching it. If you ever used commands like require(‘my_module.node’) but don’t know how they work from JavaScript perspective — this article is for you.
Recently, I encountered an issue, where I needed to multiplex downloading of big files in separate parallel chunk requests. I’ve seen a lot of articles about Service Workers and how to make offline-first applications, but Service…
A lot of times, I heard how developers from different companies, which are writing in Python, C++, Java and other programming languages are saying that JavaScript is crap. This bothered me for a while, so, at some point, I decided to write this article to…
In my previous article, I was talking about NodeJS and why it’s fast. Today, I want to talk about V8.
