Virtual filesystem now routes fs and fs/promises by mount (
569369f)
Node's VFS support now hooks the public fs.* and fs/promises APIs into mounted providers, with path-based routing back to the real filesystem when no mount applies. The change spans callbacks, promises, streams, watch, and opendir, so mounted file trees behave much more like first-class filesystem roots.
Buffer.poolSize default increases to 64 KiB (dbec31c)
The default slab size was raised from 8 KiB to 64 KiB, which expands pooled allocation coverage up to roughly 32 KiB requests. That should reduce allocator churn and improve throughput for common mid-sized buffer workloads like HTTP parsing, stream chunks, and small file reads.
V8 warnings are deferred outside DisallowJavascriptExecutionScope (
31965d6)
Warnings emitted while JavaScript execution is temporarily forbidden are now queued with SetImmediate instead of being emitted immediately. This avoids crashes in contexts like REPL preview evaluation while preserving the warning emission path.
compose() now forwards tail data through a data listener (
40dc5a1)
Stream composition was refactored to push tail output via a normal data listener and backpressure-aware pause/resume flow instead of manual readable draining. The hot path should more closely match standard pipe behavior, and the benchmark was expanded to cover both creation and throughput.
Hex color styling gets caching and a faster path (
6f29e1a)
util.styleText() now caches computed ANSI sequences for hex colors in a bounded SafeMap, avoiding repeated conversion/allocation on repeated inputs. The benchmark was also updated to stress high-cardinality color usage, which helps validate the new cache under miss-heavy workloads.
npm is upgraded to 11.16.0 (
30a7e28)
Node's vendored npm was bumped, pulling in new docs and command references for script approval features. This is a broad dependency update rather than a runtime change in Node itself.
