ArrayBuffer
Neuter
Remove the underlying data from an ArrayBuffer
and free the memory manually.
For safety, only ArrayBuffer
s that have not been externalized can be
neutered.
Install
$ npm install ab-neuter
Usage
const neuter = ;const net = ; net;
Benchmarks
The included benchmark creates a TCP server and client as a child process then pumps as much data through as possible. Every three seconds it will print the amount of Gbit/sec that have been transferred from the client to the server. Run it using:
$ node benchmark/bench-net.js
By default the transferred Buffer
will be neutered in the 'data'
callback.
To disable neutering pass --no-neuter
:
$ node benchmark/bench-net.js --no-neuter
The benchmark has been optimized to show the maximum difference between the two, and at the moment there's no way to change the parameters from the command line.
