On a side note, I just read the fully-loaded article and it dismisses
node's cluster module this way ...

---- quote ----

Approach 4: Use node’s cluster module!

NodeJS 0.6.x and up offer a cluster module which allows for the creation of
processes which “share a listening socket” to balance load across some
number of child processes.
What if you were to combine cluster with one of the approaches described
above?

The resultant design would inherit the shortcomings of synchronous or
internally threaded solutions: which are not responsive and lack grace.

Simply spinning new application instances is not always the right answer.

---- end quote ----

This seems unfounded.  Why don't extra processes help?  He makes the claim
it's no better but doesn't explain why.  I've used multiple processes in
the past and it worked great.
