Hi there, Been reading quite a lot on Node.js recently. I came up with a question (the kind of useless question one needs to ask) about whether Node is implementing a Reactor or a Proactor pattern. I have been reading that Node is a reactor, however I am very puzzled about this. Considering that Node is simulating non-blocking disk I/O thanks to an internal thread pool, then to my understanding it comes to the closest I know to a Proactor pattern even if it cannot rely entirely on the OS for this.
So Reactor or Proactor ? This is not going to change my life much and will not change how much I like Node, but it is good to know anyway :) Thanks a lot !
