0.6.19 comes with its own copy of OpenSSL 0.9.8r . It would seem logical to use that to build node when not using the system lib and not wanting to build one's own lib. Especially as I don't control the server and openssl-dev is not installed, so I have to build with an own copy of some provena

By using (in Array & Index) this form var list2 = new Array(max); you are letting Javascript know early, how big the array needs to be. If it understands and allocates the whole array *once*, then there is no more memory allocation work to be done, just code running. Doing this (Haxxor &
