Due to a lot of the util.is* checks there was much unnecessary overhead for the most common use case of Buffer. Which is creating a new Buffer instance for data from incoming I/O. NativeBuffer is a simple way to bypass all the unneeded checks and simply hand back a Buffer instance while setting the length.
Evented I/O for V8 javascript.
