What if method is the empty string? It defaulted to 'GET' before

Fixed + test added.

lib/_http_client.js

I think assumption that path length is usually less than 6 chars is very far fetched. Should we really specialize to this?

It's just loop unrolling and from my testing it seems to help, no matter what the length is.

Is the path not always expected to begin with /? If so, the check for s.charCodeAt(0) can look specifically for that.

@jasnell The path does not always have to begin with a forward slash. Some notable examples include the HTTP CONNECT and OPTIONS methods which may use an absolute URI or asterisk respectively.

ah yes... good ole CONNECT and OPTIONS...

@indutny Did that answer your question? If so, does this PR LGTY?

mscdex · 2017-01-07T03:29:41Z

I've changed the path validation function implementation a bit to squeeze out a tiny bit more performance. CI again: ~~https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-pull-request/5744/~~ https://ci.nodejs.org/job/node-test-pull-request/5745/

jasnell · 2017-01-10T19:34:06Z

@indutny ... does this LGTY with the recent updates?
