A lot of our asynchronous I/O APIs should have stream support.

  • net.requestAsync should allow for streaming the response
    • streaming the body for POST requests would be cool, too
  • net.serve should allow for streaming the request as well as streaming the response back
  • fs read and writing to files should support streams
  • process should support streaming to stdin and from stdout/stderr when creating new processes

The API and ergonomics of streams can be discussed in this issue.
