`v8_use_snapshot` should be either `true` or `false`, not 1 or 0.

LGTM. |

CI is green, landing. |

Landed in 91ccbf0, thank you! |

The old setting wasn't working? Shouldn't stuff like this be caught by tests? |
|
There is no observable behavior change when using snapshot. It doesn't look like there is a public V8 API method to check this either. |
|
This PR broke cross-compiling for ARM (and it was caught by the CI), see nodejs/build#263 (comment). |
|
Should we temporarily revert the change to keep the CI working? |

Should we wait for nodejs/build#266 to resolve before landing this on LTS? |

@thealphanerd I say hold on it, let's wait for @joaocgreis to catch up on this snapshot + cross-compile thing and weigh in |

Notable changes:
* build:
- Add support for Intel's VTune JIT profiling when compiled with
--enable-vtune-profiling. For more information about VTune, see
https://software.intel.com/en-us/node/544211. (Chunyang Dai) #3785.
- Properly enable V8 snapshots by default. Due to a configuration
error, snapshots have been kept off by default when the intention
is for the feature to be enabled. (Fedor Indutny) #3962.
* crypto:
- Simplify use of ECDH (Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman) objects
(created via crypto.createECDH(curve_name)) with private keys that
are not dynamically generated via generateKeys(). The public key
is now computed when explicitly setting a private key. Added
validity checks to reduce the possibility of computing weak or
invalid shared secrets. Also, deprecated the setPublicKey() method
for ECDH objects as its usage is unnecessary and can lead to
inconsistent state. (Michael Ruddy) #3511.
- Update root certificates from the current list stored maintained
by Mozilla NSS. (Ben Noordhuis) #3951.
- Multiple CA certificates can now be passed with the ca option to
TLS methods as an array of strings or in a single new-line
separated string. (Ben Noordhuis) #4099
* tools: Include a tick processor in core, exposed via the
--prof-process command-line argument which can be used to process V8
profiling output files generated when using the --prof command-line
argument. (Matt Loring) #4021.

Sucks that we can't test if it's been enabled or not. My rough testing (
In real terms that's roughly being able to run those 500 starts over ~35s compared to ~50s. This will be good to get into the next v4.x. For context: snapshots are disabled in all v0.10 and v0.12 builds (they were disabled somewhere in v0.6.x) for security reasons, we thought we re-enabled them @ io.js v2.0.2 / 36cdc7c but as @indutny discovered, a |

@nodejs/benchmarking it'd be great if startup speed could be included in your efforts somewhere, it's such a key performance metric to many users (fast-restart-on-error is considered best practice by many, as opposed to the JVM cross-your-fingers-on-error approach). Having measurements to push for improvements and protect against regressions would be really helpful. |

Really? |

@rvagg is this good to land in LTS now? |
|
I think yes, absolutely @thealphanerd |

best run CI against v4.x-staging afterward though @thealphanerd, just in case there's something hanging over from the arm build problems |
