Node Queue Starvation: 9 Fixes That Actually Yield

1. 1Identify greedy tasks in your Node.js workload
2. 2Use async/await to yield control back to the event loop
3. 3Implement cooperative scheduling using setImmediate() or setTimeout()
4. 4Configure and use a message queue like RabbitMQ or Apache Kafka
5. 5Apply rate limiting to prevent overwhelming the event loop
6. 6Use clustering to distribute workload across multiple processes
