2015-05-31 io.js v2.2.0 Release
PR-URL: https://github.com/nodejs/io.js/pull/1808 Notable Changes: * node: Speed-up require() by replacing usage of fs.statSync() and fs.readFileSync() with internal variants that are faster for this use-case and do not create as many objects for the garbage collector to clean up. The primary two benefits are: significant increase in application start-up time on typical applications and better start-up time for the debugger by eliminating almost all of the thousands of exception events. (Ben Noordhuis) #1801. * node: Resolution of pre-load modules (-r or --require) now follows the standard require() rules rather than just resolving paths, so you can now pre-load modules in node_modules. (Ali Ijaz Sheikh) #1812. * npm: Upgraded npm to v2.11.0. New hooks for preversion, version, and postversion lifecycle events, some SPDX-related license changes and license file inclusions. See the release notes for full details.
