Zero-Copy In-Memory Serialization: FlatBuffers and Cap'n Proto vs. Protocol Buffers in High-Throughput Microservices
Protocol Buffers require costly object decoding and memory allocations during serialization. Discover zero-copy serialization engines that access structured binary payloads directly in memory buffers.
Taming the Node.js Event Loop Under Heavy I/O: Diagnosing Lag, Worker Threads & Libuv Sizing
While Node.js excels at asynchronous I/O, CPU-intensive micro-tasks silently starve the event loop, spiking p99 response latencies. Learn how to instrument event loop delay, tune libuv threadpools, and orchestrate dedicated worker thread pools.
