Trireme 0.8.6
In addition to a Rhino upgrade and the fixes below, this release is the first two support multiple versions
of Node. The default version is based on Node 0.10.32, but there is an alternate version based on
Node 0.11.15. Scripts based on both implementations may run at the same time in the same JVM,
using the same instance of NodeEnvironment, or using different instances.
To try the new version in embedded code, call "setNodeVersion" on NodeScript using the value "0.11.x",
or call "setDefaultNodeVersion" on NodeEnvironment.
We expect that the next version of Trireme will include support for 0.12, and it will be the default.
Issue 115 Add mappings for new TLS ciphers introduced in Java 8.
Issue 116 Change process.memoryUsage() so that it correctly reports a "heapUsed" number based on the amount of data that is actually free in the heap so that scripts can use it to take action when memory is growing short.
Issue 118 Fix TLS verification so that it works properly with ECDH-derived cipher suites. This was causing TLS connections to "www.facebook.com" to fail.
Issue 119 Handle thread pool exhaustion by blocking the main thread rather than by exiting the script. This slows things down but makes the whole system much more robust.
Issue 114 Fix TriremeServlet so that it properly reads large bodies coming from the client without corruption.
Issue 120 Speed up Trireme startup.
Also, upgrade to Rhino 1.7.7. This fixes a bug with calling "toJSON" on certain Error objects, and
introduces support for native arrays, among many other things. (Native arrays like Int32Array are
used in an increasing number of Node projects since V8 supports them even without the --harmony flag.
