node: improve process.nextTick performance
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Prevent deoptimization of process.nextTick by removing the try finally
block. This is not necessary as the next tick queue will be reset
anyway, no matter if the callback throws or not.

Use a predefined array size prevents resizing the array and is therefor
faster.
