Hello, all

I hope questions about Node.js are allowed in this group. Is
it possible in Node.js to write a server that will accept
incoming packets asynchronously and at maximum speed, save
them in a queue (say in a database), and process that queue
sequentially in the order of packet arrival. That is, I seem
to need two processes: one to store packets in the queue, and
the other to process that queue. But since JavaScript is all
asynchronous and single-threaded, I do not understand
whether and how it this architecture implementable in Node.js .
