Require slow due to coffee (v0.1.8)
gfduszynski opened this issue · comments
I'm using CORE9G25@400MHz module with node-i2c.
Require call to node-i2c (v0.1.8) takes about ~4100ms,
out of which nested require to coffee-script takes about ~1900ms and compiling also about 2s.
Switching to JS would provide massive reduction in startup time.
It's a single coffeescript file, so just run coffee -c i2c.coffee to compile to js.
This solution still leaves the dependency to 'coffee-script'.
Plus it's a thing that no one would like to have in a build job 😄
You can fork it too. Most people using this module aren't running it on a 400MHZ cpu. If that changes, I'll look into modifying the code.
