I was questioning if i should be building my small bun script (super small api) first before executing it or is running the .ts file directly. are there any major performance differences?
im not serving any web content or whatever, is just a plain text protocol

I was questioning if i should be building my small bun script (super small api) ...
for large projects, using bun build to minify everything into a single file will noticeably improve performance but for small single scripts the difference is negligible

My 1.2KB script turned into 82 MB executable
And performance difference was negligible

because bun includes its own executable inside it

So it doesn't compile it down to machine code?
Like go executable was like 6MB
That's a huge difference

the compile option basically just bundles the script and appends it to the bun executable

Although I don't mind 82MB i just don't like bun used a lot of memory even when it is running an idle server
charred nova
I just run it directly
