perf: major performance optimizations
- Use event-based streaming instead of async iterators - Pre-create parser functions at init instead of per-request - Use Buffer.toString() instead of TextDecoder (~18% faster) - Use Set for HTTP method lookup (O(1) vs O(n)) - Skip Buffer.concat for single-chunk payloads - Use array push instead of spread in multipart - Track body size with running total instead of reduce Results: - JSON: ~15% faster than body-parser - Multipart: ~4x faster than formidable Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
