I got the same issue. Sometimes it works, most of the time: segment fault.

[6112:0x103061600]      252 ms: [Finished reentrant Scavenger during Scavenge.]

Whene i use LTS version(v6.11.5) of node it works fine: v6.9.0 v6.11.3 -> v6.11.5 v8.5.0 v8.6.0 v8.8.1 system default -> v8.6.0 node -> stable (-> v8.8.1) (default) stable -> 8.8 (-> v8.8.1) (default) iojs -> N/A (default) lts/* -> lts/boron (-> v6.11.5) lts/argon -> v4.8.5 (-> N/A) lts/boron -> v6.11.5

the results: Nth Fibonacci # of workers latency in MS ----------------------------------------------------------- 10 55 4 20 11 89 4 22 12 144 4 29 13 233 4 45 14 377 4 53 15 610 4 82 16 987 4 143

@syahiaoui Thanks for the valuable feedback. We just verified it works well by node <= v8.4.0 on linux, and it will fail with random callstacks by node >=v8.5.0 We are working to resolve this issue as our top priority, and we contacted node.js team to accelerate it. So, please try napa examples with node <= v8.4.0 before that. Thank you very much.

i have just upgraded to v9.6. i hope that library will support that soon

@jjhesk there was a bug to invalidate the workaround for this issue on Node 8.10.0 with Napa.js 0.2.0. Please update to 0.2.1 and have a try.
