Enqueue Work

A Node.js child process worker library for my London Node Meetup talk.

This is a proof of concept! Do not use this library in production.

Example Usage

'use strict';

const { createQueue } = require('enqueue-work');

const WORKER_SCRIPT = 'sorter.js'; // see test/sorter/index.js
const WORKER_COUNT = 4;

const queue = createQueue(WORKER_SCRIPT, WORKER_COUNT);
const { result } = await queue.schedule({ filename: 'numbers-large.json' });

Benchmarks

Array.prototype.sort

Uses a merge sort in V8 when n > 10, which has an average complexity of O(n log n).

React Server-Side Rendering (SSR)

Please note that React 16 provides Node.js stream rendering, which will substantially reduce the time to first byte (TTFB) of your markup!
