Parallel Computing with NodeJS

True parallelism via web workers (OS processes) starts at ~31 min. Before that is mainly false parallelism (by async IO).

"(Video presentation by) Ryan Dahl presents Node.js, what it is and how to program against it by exemplifying with code samples, and shows how to do highly scalable parallel programming with event-based processes."
