PR-URL: #1532 Notable Changes: * crypto: significantly reduced memory usage for TLS (Fedor Indutny & Сковорода Никита Андреевич) #1529 * net: socket.connect() now accepts a 'lookup' option for a custom DNS resolution mechanism, defaults to dns.lookup() (Evan Lucas) #1505 * npm: Upgrade npm to 2.9.0. See the v2.8.4 and v2.9.0 release notes for details. Notable items: - Add support for default author field to make npm init -y work without user-input (@othiym23) npm/npm/d8eee6cf9d - Include local modules in npm outdated and npm update (@ArnaudRinquin) npm/npm#7426 - The prefix used before the version number on npm version is now configurable via tag-version-prefix (@kkragenbrink) npm/npm#8014 * os: os.tmpdir() is now cross-platform consistent and will no longer returns a path with a trailling slash on any platform (Christian Tellnes) #747 * process: - process.nextTick() performance has been improved by between 2-42% across the benchmark suite, notable because this is heavily used across core (Brian White) #1548 - New process.geteuid(), process.seteuid(id), process.getegid() and process.setegid(id) methods allow you to get and set effective UID and GID of the process (Evan Lucas) #1536 * repl: - REPL history can be persisted across sessions if the NODE_REPL_HISTORY_FILE environment variable is set to a user accessible file, NODE_REPL_HISTORY_SIZE can set the maximum history size and defaults to 1000 (Chris Dickinson) #1513 - The REPL can be placed in to one of three modes using the NODE_REPL_MODE environment variable: sloppy, strict or magic (default); the new magic mode will automatically run "strict mode only" statements in strict mode (Chris Dickinson) #1513 * smalloc: the 'smalloc' module has been deprecated due to changes coming in V8 4.4 that will render it unusable * util: add Promise, Map and Set inspection support (Christopher Monsanto) #1471 * V8: upgrade to 4.2.77.18, see the ChangeLog for full details. Notable items: - Classes have moved out of staging; the class keyword is now usable in strict mode without flags - Object literal enhancements have moved out of staging; shorthand method and property syntax is now usable ({ method() { }, property }) - Rest parameters (function(...args) {}) are implemented in staging behind the --harmony-rest-parameters flag - Computed property names ({['foo'+'bar']:'bam'}) are implemented in staging behind the --harmony-computed-property-names flag - Unicode escapes ('\u{xxxx}') are implemented in staging behind the --harmony_unicode flag and the --harmony_unicode_regexps flag for use in regular expressions * Windows: - Random process termination on Windows fixed (Fedor Indutny) #1512 / #1563 - The delay-load hook introduced to fix issues with process naming (iojs.exe / node.exe) has been made opt-out for native add-ons. Native add-ons should include 'win_delay_load_hook': 'false' in their binding.gyp to disable this feature if they experience problems . (Bert Belder) #1433 * Governance: - Rod Vagg (@rvagg) was added to the Technical Committee (TC) - Jeremiah Senkpiel (@Fishrock123) was added to the Technical Committee (TC)
