If it monkey-patched existing modules in the current process, then you need
to require it once per process you want patched. So in the case of

If you really want a safe map where any key is allowed and doesn't conflict
with builtin javascript properties, just implement your own map. Here is a
very simple one that allows storing *any* value as keys. This includes the

Besides simplicity, there are several reasons to simply export a function
that accepts config options and returns an instance of the module.
- Instanceof is dangerous and doesn't work cross-context or if you have

things like passing a C struct to JS
and back, wrapping external binary buffers, and binary data in general, but
this should be enough to get a general idea of the kind of API I'm looking

The important thing is that it's as 1:1 with the JS it represents as
possible, but in simple C.

Node can easily consume C libraries through V8 Bindings written in C++ or

the JS API wrapper to expose this as the well known setTimeout interface:

I also tried this approach in the early days and handed off the code to
tmpvar as conductor. Personally it was too complex to be usable, but it
sure was a fun challenge to write.

That's awesome Brian, I went a similar route in the early days of node. I
quit my senior PHP position to work on node full time, and now some
consider me a node expert. There is no shortage of smart people in the
world, that's for sure.

Depending on where node fails you might be able to use the underlying
http_parser bindings directly. Look in http.js in the node source to see
how it's used.

You can use the TCP client directly and hand-roll the http request. Your
response won't be parsed as http (nor would you want to in the error case),
but you can write a crude parser in js to get the bulk of it.

Since you say it works fast locally and slow over internet, I'm guessing
the issue is bandwidth and internet latency. If the node proceess isn't
maxing out a cpu core, it's probably not the bottleneck. You may need to
change your architecture not your runtime. For example use node to set up

Node can easily call other processes and has full control over the stdio
streams if desired. (or there are convenience wrappers if you don't need
full control) Look at the child_process APIs.

Unless it's changed recently, dropping in various versions of V8 are pretty
safe in node. The V8 team doesn't change APIs that often, and usually it's
adding new APIs, not breaking existing ones. I've never heard of v8-i18n,
so I don't know how well that tracks. I would hope it's API compatible
I've never used http://locomotivejs.org/, but node itself is quite powerful

If the question is if node itself has enough potential, then the answer is
that, yes, node is plenty powerful.

If the amount of data is small enough that it can all be kept in ram, a
simple custom database using large node buffers would work great.
I would use msgpack or some other compact serialization to store the data
in the buffer efficiently.
