Added documentation on threading #268

Closed BernieSumption closed 8 years ago

BernieSumption commented 8 years ago

I found this module while looking for a fast image compositing library, and my immediate question was "how does this interact with NodeJS's event loop and what will the performance impact on my app be if I use it in a web application on a multi core machine".

I decided to dig around the source code and find out for myself, this is the result of my enquiries.

For the record, the path was: lwip's *Worker classes > NAN's AsyncQueueWorker > uv_queue_work > this page on threading performance
