Is it safe to apply this configurations in production environment?

Great work! I am trying to apply it on Sitecore XP 9.3 in Docker. It looks like that the
runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="false"
is causing issues in Content Editor and Control Panel. Some client scripts don't load because of "no owin:Environment in the session" error. I removed that xdt:Transform in order to make it work but it's not so fast anymore. Have you tested it for Sitecore 9.3?

Thanks! and yeah in 9.3 (especially XP) the runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="false" is not good to use. But if you don't use tracking/xconnect stuff on the CD then you can use it there to get a little more throughput. The rest is working fine on 9.3.
