Comment on Clearing up some things about LinkedIn mobile’s move from Rails to node.js

Comments

It's definitely true, that node.js isn't a full fledged framework, but I still wrote several projects using it and you know what? I don't regret it, as much as I don't regret my move from C++ to C over the past years. And for the memory usage: Yes, even my biggest project never needed more than 100MB of RAM (when not using the cluster module).

But I completely agree with "the rewrite thing". I guess the other factors made it necessary to still do it....
