What version of node are you running against? I've made a couple comments
on your code.
As far as message parsing goes you have two routes. Either you can do all
of it in js, which is fairly standard, or you can write a native module to
do the same. The later is usually only necessary if the data being parsed
is packed in some binary format, but in my experience even normal (i.e.
ascii text) parsing can achieve up to +30% performance gains.

If you're running this on latest master and in a controlled environment
where you know the input will only be ascii characters then use encoding
'binary'. You'll get about double the performance since it doesn't take
time to check if all characters are actually in the ascii range. Though,
again, this is only for latest master and _only_ if it's a controlled
environment.

Why wrap this in a try/catch?

If you're not actively using the callbacks then don't set them. It'll still
make the event call if a callback is set. Not expensive by any means, but
also not free.
