But what about multiple-processor concurrency? Aren't threads
|
||||
necessary to scale programs to multi-core computers?

</i>
|

Processes are necessary to scale to multi-core computers, not
|
||||
memory-sharing threads. The fundamentals of scalable systems are
|
||||
fast networking and non-blocking design—the rest is message
|
||||
passing. In future versions, Node will be able to fork new
|
||||
processes (using the <a
|
||||
href="http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-workers/current-work/"> Web
|
||||
Workers API </a>) which fits well into the current design.
|
||||
You can start new processes via <code>child_process.fork()</code>
|
||||
these other processes will be scheduled in parallel.
