Node.js has memory limitations that you can hit quite easily in production. You'll know this if you ever tried to load a large data file into your Node.js application. But where exactly are the limits of memory in Node.js? In this short talk we'll push Node.js to it's limits and find out where those limits are. We'll also cover some practical techniques you can use to work around the memory limitations and get your data to fit into memory. A talk by Ashley Davis for the Brisbane JavaScript meetup.
