Why imperative imports are slower than declarative imports

A lot of people misunderstood Top-level await is a footgun, including me. I thought the primary danger was that people would be able to put things like AJAX requests in their top-level await expressions, and that this was terrible because await strongly encourages sequential operations even though a lot of the asynchronous activity we're talking about should actually happen concurrently.

But that's not the worst of it. Imperative module loading is intrinsically bad for app startup performance, in ways that are quite subtle.

Consider an app like this:

// main.js

Edit — February 2019

This gist had a far larger impact than I imagined it would, and apparently people are still finding it, so a quick update:

• TC39 is currently moving forward with a slightly different version of TLA, referred to as 'variant B', in which a module with TLA doesn't block sibling execution. This vastly reduces the danger of parallelizable work happening in serial and thereby delaying startup, which was the concern that motivated me to write this gist
• In the wild, we're seeing (async main(){...}()) as a substitute for TLA. This completely eliminates the blocking problem (yay!) but it's less powerful, and harder to statically analyse (boo). In other words the lack of TLA is causing real problems
• Therefore, a version of TLA that solves the original issue is a valuable addition to the language, and I'm in full support of the current proposal, which you can read here.

I'll leave the rest of this document unedited, for archaeological

This is a note to myself about what I need to do to setup a Raspbian box.

1. Username is pi and pw is raspberry. osmc/osmc if OSMC.
2. apt-get update
3. apt-get dist-upgrade -y
4. apt-get install nfs-kernel-server openvpn software-properties-common vim git dnsutils -y

• software-properties-common for adding PPAs

5. apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 249AD24C

• we can't use apt-add-repository because the Deluge PPA only has Ubuntu builds
• key info is found here
