  • Until now V8 cached data was used to make executables without sources inside. Now cached data is also used to speed up application boot time.
  • Hence, application boot up is around 20% faster in pkg’ed state than using ‘node’.
  • Now possible to add resources (icon) to executables on Windows (ResourceHacker, etc).
  • V8 callsites work properly. Stacktraces contain names of files as they were at compilation time.
  • Supports Node.js versions 0.12, 4, 6, 7, 8 as targets.
  • Consumes much less memory during compilation process (important for Raspberry Pi or low-mem VMs).
  • Hence, it's possible to make big executables without “process out of memory” during compilation (installers, geoip-lite, etc).
  • Improvement of how spawn hook works internally. Also implemented execFile and exec hooks.
