Node has a bug fix related to performance with fibers, which is very important to Meteor. Without the fix applied, any Meteor process which creates a large number of fibers will become very slow; switching between fibers is O(n) in the peak number of concurrent fibers the process has ever contained.

The fix is present in Node 10.2.0 and later, and which will be in Node 8.12 as soon as they cut a release, which should be soon. Meteor is currently on Node 8.11, which is affected.

This should be handled in this PR: #10090 which looks like it should land in 1.7.1

You can start using Node 8.12.0 in the latest Meteor 1.7.1 release candidates!

meteor update --release 1.7.1-rc.11

See also #10216, which is why we've reverted the upgrade for now.

In order to reflect what's been fixed in the Meteor 1.8.1 milestone so far, I'm going to close this issue now, though of course you'll need to run

meteor update --release 1.8.1-beta.8

to get Node 8.14.0.
