In order to +mitigate this issue, one potential solution is to increase the size of libuv's +threadpool by setting the \fB'UV_THREADPOOL_SIZE'\fR environment variable to a value +greater than \fB4\fR (its current default value). However, setting this from inside +the process using \fBprocess.env.UV_THREADPOOL_SIZE=size\fR is not guranteed to work +as the threadpool would have been created as part of the runtime initialisation +much before user code is run.
