Will Backbone stand the test of time as both data binding and DOM eventing continue to evolve?

C# async is very efficient -- a lot more efficient than many other eventing frameworks in many other languages.

Flight.js is a microframework by Twitter based on DOM eventing - it requires jQuery and Require.js to use it.

Virtual DOM makes rendering fast, but it has extra costs in eventing and in javascript timers.

What would you choose to build a super low latency eventing system using current off-the-shelf components?

Concurrency is handled for you for free by the underlying libuv eventing framework.

Ideally, you should: • Be an expert in object-orientation, eventing and delegation, and other modern programming styles.

Moreover, there's not really a connection between async/eventing and locking; they're somewhat orthogonal.

I tried to quantify the performance numbers - and react does show virtual DOM rendering improvements, but eventing is expensive.

Ruby is not built from the ground up for concurrency and eventing.

Angular has a void with the lack of a useful enough eventing solution - $scope eventing has specific use cases, but you don't want to use it as a general event bus, mainly due to performance.

Qualitatively, Angular is way easier to get started, but React "feels nicer" (it's hard to explain, but because you have to handle a lot of the eventing and message passing yourself, you feel like you understand your own app a lot better.

(sorry if this comes off a bit snarky) "Overuse of the eventing system ($watch, $emit, $broadcast) leading to performance problems and memory leaks and not realizing it or being able to debug it" Blindly overusing most features in frameworks or libraries can cause performance problems.

It's a lot more performant and easier to look at and say "that is a model" vs "this is a javascript object, but I don't know if it's being listened to or not." Forgetting to set up your eventing fabric is not a great reason to choose a framework.

From silicon chemistry theory, voltage biasing different types of substrates, the definition of ground, all the way to sofware control loops, eventing, software emulating parallellism, all the things happening and just waiting to happen on a single OS before you even press "g" on the keyboard will blow most people's minds away.
