| ## Minutes | ||
|
|
||
| ### [meta] realpath issues in v6 [#7726](https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/7726) | ||
|
|
||
| @rvagg: some discussion of reversion to v5 behavior, i.e. JS implementation rather than libuv implementation. | ||
|
|
||
| @trevnorris: looks like everybody’s leaning towards a full revert (or at least a partial revert). I don’t like this plan but will go along. | ||
|
|
||
| @addaleax: Unfortunate to have to do full revert for *nix systems. But having alternate impl for Windows increases maintenance costs. | ||
|
|
||
| As part of the new implementation, the `cache` parameter was removed from the method. It was created to improve perf for the JS impl but is considered less necessary since the native impl performs better anyway. | ||
|
|
||
| Should we reinstate the `cache` parameter as part of the revert? Would this be a semver-major again? Does caching in the JS impl provide a significant perf benefit? | ||
|
|
||
| @addaleax: Benchmarking fs perf will show how much benefit the caching capability in libuv provides. | ||
|
|
||
| @mhdawson: we run two benchmarks nightly: one with caching and one without. | ||
|
|
||
| @orangemocha: It seems okay to have two impl’s, one for Windows and one for *nix, increased maintenance surface isn’t a concern, libuv manages libuv impl. | ||
|
|
||
| @rvagg: As we move v6 to LTS it would be best to have a known-good implementation. So would prefer a full revert, then fix libuv impl independently, then re-integrate. | ||
|
|
||
| @thealphanerd: Could we provide both interfaces? Revert the primary one to original behavior and add a second one with libuv behavior? | ||
|
|
||
| @rvagg: Still doesn’t address breaking change in Windows. | ||
|
|
||
| @fishrock123: also in favor of reverting. This has been going on for a long time, best to revert and then fix. | ||
|
|
||
| @orangemocha: should not compromise correctness for performance. | ||
|
|
||
| @trevnorris: caching could be separated from fs API. For example, it could be part of `module` module. | ||
|
|
||
| @rvagg: This is why I’m in favor of a full reversion. These other discussions may continue for a month and we need to correct problem now. | ||
|
|
||
| @thealphanerd: do we have a list of the original bugs the libuv patch addressed? | ||
|
|
||
| @saghul has a list. | ||
|
|
||
| @rvagg: back to github for now. | ||
|
|
||
| **Next steps**: continue discussion in GH. | ||
|
|
||
| ### v4.5.0 proposal [#7688](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/7688) | ||
|
|
||
| @thealphanerd is raising visibility for tests and feedback. | ||
|
|
||
| @misterdjules may have some testers. | ||
|
|
||
| ### http: don't inherit from Object.prototype [#6102](https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/6102) | ||
|
|
||
| @rvagg: Need choices to vote on. | ||
|
|
||
| @ofrobots: Wants to explore more options including `map` so wait for vote. If the goal is to go to a map why don’t we do that now? | ||
|
|
||
| @Fishrock123: Because community has taken dependencies on it being an object. | ||
|
|
||
| @ofrobots: headers end up with “megamorphic IC’s” so wants to research further. | ||
|
|
||
| @Fishrock123: We are fixing this because header names like `__proto__` conflict with default object properties. | ||
|
|
||
| We should really just make an API for headers. | ||
|
|
||
| @rvagg: We’ll come back to this next week. Prepare wording for vote if ready. | ||
|
|
||
| **Next steps**: List available options and conduct vote next week. | ||
