I have a conspiracy, because nodejs is single threaded asynchronous event loop, hence it is easy to temporarily freeze the entire application by mistakenly introduce a tick anywhere in your application that is just too long what it should be, thus the closer you get to a large monolith the more likely it is that your application has reoccurring freezes.
My conspiracy theory is that this phenomenon partly created the need of microservices within the web community and by that creating entire new set of problems that needed to be solved.
