Subject: [PATCH] worker: add eventLoopUtilization()
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Allow calling eventLoopUtilization() directly on a worker thread:

    const worker = new Worker('./foo.js');
    const elu = worker.performance.eventLoopUtilization();
    setTimeout(() => {
      worker.performance.eventLoopUtilization(elu);
    }, 10);

Add a new performance object on the Worker instance that will hopefully
one day hold all the other performance metrics, such as nodeTiming.

Include benchmarks and tests.

+
+The same call as [`perf_hooks` `eventLoopUtilization()`][], except the values

+
+One difference is that, unlike the main thread, bootstrapping within a worker
+is done within the event loop. So the event loop utilization will be
+immediately available once the worker's script begins execution.
+
+An `idle` time that does not increase does not indicate that the worker is
+stuck in bootstrap. The following examples shows how the worker's entire
+lifetime will never accumulate any `idle` time, but is still be able to process
+messages.
+
+```js
+const { Worker, isMainThread, parentPort } = require('worker_threads');
+
+if (isMainThread) {
+  const worker = new Worker(__filename);
+  setInterval(() => {
+    worker.postMessage('hi');

+  }, 100).unref();
+  return;

+  if (--n < 0) return;
+  const t = Date.now();
+  while (Date.now() - t < 300);
+  setImmediate(r, n);
+})(10);
+```
+
+The event loop utilization of a worker is available only after the [`'online'`
+event][] emitted, and if called before this, or after the [`'exit'`
+event][], then all properties have the value of `0`.
