I disagree. Where V8 can run is a core part of the deployment surface of node.js, so what server authors think about V8 and it's suitability for integration and deployment very much matter to node.js.
Remember, 'does rails scale'? :|
- daeken 15y agoEven if every one of these issues applies to node.js, this article is not "on node.js". The title is incorrect, no matter what.
- xer0x 15y agoAgreed. The title is totally trolling for attention. Nginx and Nodejs are very different. Nodejs was built on V8 from the beginning, while it would have to be grafted into Nginx somehow. Nodejs isn't Chrome but it's willing to pretend that it is - nginx isn't.

- hanszeir 15y agoThe title is a copy from a Reddit posting. I thought about changing it. Node.js is build on top of V8. It is better to get attention from Node.js experts so that others can get a clearer picture. Updated: Never mind, someone just change the title for me. The original title is "The author of Nginx on node.js and why V8 is not suitable for web servers.".
- rhizome 15y agoNode.js experts already know to look for V8 stuff.
