Node.js on multi-core machines

Question

Node.js looks interesting, BUT I must miss something - isn\'t Node.js tuned only to run on a single process and thread?

Answer 1

The cluster module allows you to utilise all cores of your machine. In fact you can take advantage of this in just 2 commands and without touching your code using a very popular process manager pm2.

npm i -g pm2
pm2 start app.js -i max
