Video: https://teamtreehouse.com/library/organizing-your-code-with-require
Minute 2:50
CLI : node app.js chalkers davemcfarland
Dave's results printed to the screen first and Chalkers results second. In a different video, Chalkers ran the same command, only this time with Alena Holligan's profile and her results came up first.
Since Node is non-conflicting and Alena's profile is smaller than Chalkers, then node printed her results to the console first. However, in the current video mentioned above, I see Dave's profile is larger than Chalkers and yet, Dave's results printed first and Chalkers second. Shouldn't be the other way around? Perhaps, a smaller profile doesn't necessarily finish running before a larger profile?
I'd also like to know if node gets exhausted to run if a profile is too big and a message like 'Server Timeout' is displayed.
I apologize if this question isn't clear.

it doesnt metter if it has more data or not sometimes you get larger first and sometimes not you can test it :), but you can do for example
function1();
setTimeout(function2, 3000); // this run after 3 secs after code execute ( not after func 1 )
also you can set if you want it Async or Sync - Sync is by default :)
