Notable Changes

assert: deep{Strict}Equal() now works correctly with circular references. (Rich Trott) #6432
debugger: Arrays are now formatted correctly in the debugger repl. (cjihrig) #6448
deps: Upgrade OpenSSL sources to 1.0.2h (Shigeki Ohtsu) #6550
net: Introduced a Socket#connecting property. (Fedor Indutny) #6404
- Previously this information was only available as the undocumented, internal _connecting property.
process: Introduced process.cpuUsage(). (Patrick Mueller) #6157
stream: Writable#setDefaultEncoding() now returns this. (Alexander Makarenko) #5040
util: Two new additions to util.inspect():
- Added a maxArrayLength option to truncate the formatting of Arrays. (James M Snell) #6334
  - This is set to 100 by default.
- Added a showProxy option for formatting proxy intercepting handlers. (James M Snell) #6465
  - Inspecting proxies is non-trivial and as such this is off by default.
