Update on my Node.js Memory and GC Benchmark - Hannes Wallnöfer
Posted on 29 September 2010 I was lucky enough to have a short chat with Ryan at JSConf.eu last weekend in Berlin about the memory allocation comparison between Node.js and RingoJS I had done. He didn’t have any suggestion for tuning Node.js or V8 for higher memory and garbage collector throughput, but thought it was possible that Node’s lackluster performance in the benchmark had to do with binary buffers and getting data in and out of them.
My Node.js Linksheet - Progstr Filer

Staying up with Node.JS
To many beginner Node.JS users, a fundamental and immediate apparent disadvantage of writing their web applications with Node.JS lies in the inability to save a file, refresh the browser and see their changes live. This “problem” is rooted of course in significantly different architectures. In the case of, for example, PHP applications we traditionally separate the role of the web server and request handler. The monolithic web server maps incoming requests to the execution of particular files in the file system, which become our handlers. In most setups, the web server is mostly limited to inspecting two pieces of a HTTP request: the resource (like /test.php) and the Host header (like www.mydomain.com) for virtual hosts (vhosts) support.
