This increases fs.WriteStream throughput dramatically by removing the
"higher default water marks" for fs.WriteStream.
Also includes a benchmark. Current performance is significantly higher
than v0.8 for strings at all tested levels except size=1. Buffer
performance is still lackluster.
Further improvement in the stream.Writable base class is required, but
this is a start.
Using external memory values allows for quick communication between js
and cc land, so we can check if the js land callback needs to be run.
(this is where I meant that manually tracking nextTickQueue.length would
be helpful)
Also did some minor cleanup of removing the old Tick and
StartTickSpinner functions, and a few unneeded comments.
Conflicts:
src/node.cc
* Callbacks from spinner now calls its own function, separate from the
tickCallback logic
* MakeCallback will call a domain specific function if a domain is
detected
* _tickCallback assumes no domains, until nextTick receives a callback
with a domain. After that _tickCallback is overridden with the domain
specific implementation.
* _needTickCallback runs in startup() instead of nextTick (isaacs)
* Fix bug in _fatalException where exit would be called twice (isaacs)
* Process.domain has a default value of null
* Manually track nextTickQueue.length (will be useful later)
* Update tests to reflect internal api changes
This reverts commit 0109a9f90a.
Also included: Port all the changes to process._makeCallback into the
C++ version. Immediate nextTick, etc.
This yields a slight boost in several benchmarks. V8 is optimizing and
deoptimizing process._makeCallback repeatedly.
* npm: Upgrade to v1.2.11
* http: Do not let Agent hand out destroyed sockets (isaacs)
* http: Raise hangup error on destroyed socket write (isaacs)
* http: protect against response splitting attacks (Bert Belder)
Prior to v0.10, Node ignored ECONNRESET errors in many situations.
There *are* valid cases in which ECONNRESET should be ignored as a
normal part of the TCP dance, but in many others, it's a very relevant
signal that must be heeded with care.
Exacerbating this problem, if the OutgoingMessage does not have a
req.connection._handle, it assumes that it is in the process of
connecting, and thus buffers writes up in an array.
The problem happens when you reuse a socket between two requests, and it
is destroyed abruptly in between them. The writes will be buffered,
because the socket has no handle, but it's not ever going to GET a
handle, because it's not connecting, it's destroyed.
The proper fix is to treat ECONNRESET correctly. However, this is a
behavior/semantics change, and cannot land in a stable branch.
Fix #4775
