I'm getting sick of seeing this. Node wasn't intended for compute heavy workloads...ever...at any point...for any reason. This is like the 50th time someone has decided it was appropriate to point it out by generating Fibonacci numbers (among other things). Go watch the node.js presentation Ryan Dahl gave at JsConf 2009, he addresses this during that speech. His opinion on the "right way" to do concurrency is a little polarizing, but, quote: "the right way to do concurrency is to use a single thread and have an event loop. this requires that what you 'do' outside of IO waits not take very long".
