@tal-shahar, thanks for your bug report. This bug was fixed in d34e6e9.

still getting stuck in the same spot.
I'd like to point out this is apparently only happening on Ubuntu 16.04.

on Ubuntu 14.04 it works fine.

adding UV_THREADPOOL_SIZE=64 to npm start seems to have solved the issue.

I tried adding adding UV_THREADPOOL_SIZE=64 to npm and the issue persist

[tal-shahar]

@jezamba this is what I wrote in the terminal "UV_THREADPOOL_SIZE=64 npm start" when i ran the project, if that's what you did try increasing the number.
it has something to do with the number of threads allocated to the service, I'm not completely sure yet what it dose excellently, if anyone reading this knows i would love an explanation.

You are a life saver. Thank you so much. At 3am last night I was about to throw my computer at a wall when I encountered this issue yet again and none of the previous tricks I had used worked.
