Thank you to everyone involved in this. I'm wondering, is Node.js fiddling with v8 in order to focus more on the resulting code performance than the initial startup.

Planning to learn C/C++ in order to investigate that and if there any gains there.

I would guess node.js apps can load a ton of code so the startup can be important too.

What's a 30 seconds of startup for an app that will stay up for a few hours until the next deploy?

More downtime upon deployment (or spreading deployment over longer period).

For serverless with cold starts, direct translation to $.

The whole motivation for tiered JITing is to attempt a balance that gets the best of both worlds; fast startup, optimized hot code (over time).

Unfortunately many CLI tools are written in JS as well (looking at you wrangler).

Lots of money when talking about serverless.

Sounds like a joy to test
