> Much of esbuild's performance gains are in throwing out a lot of cruft. I don’t think there’s a great way to be sure of this. Parcel 2 (my personal favorite), for example, doesn’t include, by default, much of the cruft from mid-2010s JavaScript, but esbuild is still faster. Theoretically, being able to use multiple cores would bring speed improvements to a lot of the tree manipulation tasks involved in building js projects. > esbuild versus webpack performance is never a fair fight. Yeah webpack is just the worst. Bloated from day 1
