There isn't an original article. In fact, my article isn't something to give the node.js police ideas on how to "fix" various stuff. This is about how various runtimes handle bad recursion. In fact, V8 isn't stupidly slow compared to PHP, CPython, and the de facto Ruby implementation.

If you aren't writing recursive code, then the valuable information for you is NULL. Otherwise, it may give you some food for though.
