They can be done using any concurrency mechanism (green threads, coroutines, threads, processes, etc.) The node child_process.fork() API is very similar. -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
