Node fbgraph module: will it work well with a large number of users?

Question

I want to integrate facebook API into my NodeJS server. Right now , the fbgraph module looks like a simple and easy solution to my needs. My only concern is how fbgraph sets accessTokens for facebook users. According to the api description, accessToken is set as follows:

graph.setAccessToken(access_token); 

My only concern is this: if my site is gaining more popularity and I have hundreds of requests for a facebook schedule per second, I will have to set a global variable (what seems) for each user that I want to interact with. Is there a chance that an access token for the user can be set on the api chart before the previous user api request is processed? Intuitively, I feel like I should use a module that includes an access token with every API call, but maybe this is not necessary ...

Can someone clarify if my concerns are justified?

This is an actual issue, and actually there was a problem raised about this :

Doh! good point of view. I think this should probably be added as middleware so that the request is always associated with the session. Not sure when I can implement this. If you have time, go nuts!

Actually, instead:

 graph.get("/me", req.session.access_token, function(err, data) { console.log(data); }); 

Just do:

 graph .setAccessToken(req.session.access_token) .get("/me", function(err, data) { console.log(data); });
