In zlibBuffer(), don't wait for the garbage collector to reclaim the zlib memory
but release it manually. Reduces memory consumption by a factor of 10 or more
with some workloads.
Test case:
function f() {
require('zlib').deflate('xxx', g);
}
function g() {
setTimeout(f, 5);
}
f();
Observe RSS memory usage with and without this commit. After 10,000 iterations,
RSS stabilizes at ~35 MB with this commit. Without, RSS is over 300 MB and keeps
growing.
Cause: whenever the JS object heap hits the high-water mark, the V8 GC sweeps
it clean, then tries to grow it in order to avoid more sweeps in the near
future. Rule of thumb: the bigger the JS heap, the lazier the GC can be.
A side effect of a bigger heap is that objects now live longer. This is harmless
in general but it affects zlib context objects because those are tied to large
buffers that live outside the JS heap, on the order of 16K per context object.
Ergo, don't wait for the GC to reclaim the memory - it may take a long time.
Fixes #4172.
This is a flag to make it easier for users to upgrade through the
breaking crypto change, and easier for us to switch it back if it's a
problem.
Explicitly set default encoding to 'buffer' in other tests, in case it
ever changes back.
crypto: Hash and Hmac default to buffers
crypto: Move Cipher encoding logic to JS
crypto: Move Cipheriv encoding logic to JS
crypto: Move Decipher encoding logic to JS
crypto: Move Decipheriv into JS, default to buffers
crypto: Move Sign class to JS
crypto: Better encoding handling in Hash.update
crypto: Move Verify class to JS
crypto: Move DiffieHellman to JS, default to buffers
crypto: Move DiffieHellmanGroup to JS, default to buffers
Also, create a test for this feature
Before there was this weird module-scoped "context" variable which seemingly
shared the "context" of subsequent REPL instances, unless ".clear" was invoked
inside the REPL. To be proper, we need to ensure that each REPL gets its own
"context" object. I literally don't know why this "sharing" behavior was in place
before, but it was just plain wrong.
Consolidates all the formatting options into an "options" object argument.
This is so that we don't have to be constantly remembering the order of
the arguments and so that we can add more formatting options easily.
Closes #4085.
Listen for the 'clientError' event that is emitted when a renegotation attack
is detected and close the connection.
Fixes test/pummel/test-https-ci-reneg-attack.js
Make the 'listening' event handler in the master process see the actual port
that the worker bound to when the worker specified port 0, i.e. a random port.
Encoding failures can be somewhat confusing, especially when they are due to
control flow frameworks auto-filling parameters from the previous step output
values to functions (such as toString and write) that developers don't expect
to take an encoding parameter. By outputting the value as part of the message,
should make it easier to track down these sort of bugs.
This reverts commit 790d651f0d.
This makes Duplex streams unworkable, and would only ever be a special
case for HTTP responses, which is not ideal.
Intead, we're going to just bless the 'finish' event for all Writable
streams in 0.10
Just as the 'WWW-Authenticate' HTTP header the 'Proxy-Authenticate' header might
be received several times as well. Currently only one value is preserved. This
change allows to receive multiple values concatenated by space and comma.

A child process created with .fork() needed to call `process.exit()` explicitly
because the communication channel with the parent kept the event loop alive.
Fix that by only ref'ing the channel when there are 'message' event listeners.
Fixes #3799.
