The problem

When I list my npm packages with npm ls -g (or without the -g option for a local node_modules directory) I see all installed packages and their dependencies. Like so:

$ npm ls -g
├─┬ anvil.js@0.9.0-RC3.1
│ ├── colors@0.6.0
│ ├─┬ commander@1.1.1
│ │ └── keypress@0.1.0

    system "rm -f tmp/*"
  end

Don't use MongoDB

I've kept quiet for awhile for various political reasons, but I now feel a kind of social responsibility to deter people from banking their business on MongoDB.

Our team did serious load on MongoDB on a large (10s of millions of users, high profile company) userbase, expecting, from early good experiences, that the long-term scalability benefits touted by 10gen
