I'm super excited about NextJS releases, but there has been a persistent memory leak issue is absolutely killer for larger projects: https://github.com/vercel/next.js/issues/15855. It's so difficult to debug, but dang, it's just brutal to deal with on a daily basis. Hoping some of these dependency reductions help.
> Improved Installation Time: 58% smaller install size and 56% fewer dependencies.

Great to see NextJS putting effort to reduce dependencies.

Definitely! I would love to hear what kind of replacements they had to make:

>As part of our goal to optimize dependencies, we also updated and/or replaced npm packages that were marked as deprecated by their authors – even when they were deeply nested in the dependency tree.

I wonder if they just rewrote some smaller packages themselves, or if they managed to find a maintained alternative for all of them?

They often compile stuff and just check it into their tree.
> 3x Faster Refresh: 200ms faster refresh with no changes necessary.

Good. Refresh time and compile time feel like biggest drawbacks to Next right now.

I just wanted to say next.js was the first frontend framework I learnt, It just keeps getting better.
