> We have a branch that makes about 2x faster, but we need to prioritize our 1700+ open issues over performance optimizations right now.
Recently I have even tried to port onde of my nextjs projects to it, but to my surprise it does not work on Linux ARM64 due to a broken syscall.
To me, the biggest selling point of Bun is not the runtime performance, but the fact that it can replace all tools for installing packages and bundling apps. (No need for a node modules for with hundreds of packages for a simple hello world web app)
Runtime performance is not that important for JS servers, considering that most of the applications are just http glue code to a database server. (Maybe it is just me, but I would never use JS to write performance critical code).
So focusing on making things stable would be a really good move right now.
In any case I'm super enthusiastic about Bun and it has a lot of potential. I hope you can make it work!
