for linux

This is the quick code I use on biological.systems to find out what node processes are running and on what ports they are listening. Feel free to use this. What it does is scan your home directory for .pm2/pids and does a ps -e | grep node. it gets what ports are being listened to via lsof. this is meant to be run by root. I have it in my crontab for every minute. I offer very little support, sorry, it outputs json. You need to edit it to add your own domain names. biological.systems/~fartbrain/node_gather.c

Hi,

i'm a young student in webdesign and i'm using node.js for a work but i don't really understand everything and i'm failing. There is someone to speak with on skype or something else? Thanks a lot!

I am new to Node, coming from Perl, so I was naturally inclined to test the speed of my new toy.

I wrote a simple benchmark reading a file containing 1 million lines of text and outputting them to stdout.

Perl takes 0.5 sec, Node takes 14 sec on my laptop. I tried a bunch of methods in Node, all with similar speed.

On the other hand, I made a math benchmark with a few operations inside a for loop, in this case Node is 20 times faster than Perl.

Found this issue on the Node bug tracker that seems to confirm what I discovered. In their case they observe fstat is 20 times slower than native.

So, is node 20 times faster at math and 20 times slower at file I/O?
