Type: End-of-Life

    In an earlier version of the Node.js cluster, a boolean property with the name suicide was added to the Worker object. The intent of this property was to provide an indication of how and why the Worker instance exited. In Node.js 6.0.0, the old property was deprecated and replaced with a new [worker.exitedAfterDisconnect][] property. The old property name did not precisely describe the actual semantics and was unnecessarily emotion-laden.
