How to calculate the current CPU load with Node.js; without using any external modules or OS specific calls.
var os = require("os");
//Create function to get CPU information
function cpuAverage() {
//Initialise sum of idle and time of cores and fetch CPU info
var totalIdle = 0, totalTick = 0;
var cpus = os.cpus();
//Loop through CPU cores

NGINX tuning for best performance

NGINX Tuning For Best Performance

For this configuration you can use web server you like, i decided, because i work mostly with it to use nginx.

Generally, properly configured nginx can handle up to 400K to 500K requests per second (clustered), most what i saw is 50K to 80K (non-clustered) requests per second and 30% CPU load, course, this was 2 x Intel Xeon with HyperThreading enabled, but it can work without problem on slower machines.

You must understand that this config is used in testing environment and not in production so you will need to find a way to implement most of those features best possible for your servers.

Example showing how to connect with a USB device using Javascript. Note that this file uses the chrome.usb.* API's which are only available for "packaged app" Chrome extensions.
var port = 0;
var endpoint = 0x01;
var device = { vendorId: 0x04b8, productId: 0x0202};
var connect = function(callback) {
chrome.permissions.getAll(function(p) {
if (p.permissions.indexOf('usb') >= 0) {
//construct permission object for our device
var obj = { usbDevices: [device] };
