Highlights 💡

Support for persistent cache

Rspack v1.2 introduced an experimental cache configuration that supports persistent caching, which can significantly improve hot startup speed.

When a build hits the cache, it can bring up to 60% performance improvement in real projects.

// rspack.config.js
module.exports = {
  cache: true,
  experiments: {
    cache: {
      type: 'persistent',
    },
  },
};

Note that the persistent cache is still in an early experimental stage and there is a lot of room for performance improvement.

No longer watching node_modules

Rspack v1.2 no longer watching the node_modules directory by default. This can greatly reduce the number of files to watch and improve performance.

According to our benchmark repo, this change will:

  • Reduce memory usage by 120MB.
  • Increase dev startup speed by 40%.
  • Increase HMR speed by 20~30%.

This change will not affect symlinked resources in monorepo, as symlinked resources are resolved to their real path by default.

Upgrade to SWC 9.0

The Rust crate swc_core has been upgraded to 9.0.2. Users of the SWC Wasm plugin need to ensure version consistency with the swc_core being used, otherwise, it may lead to unforeseen issues.

For more details, see SWC Plugin Version Unmatched.

Reduced memory usage

We have optimized the data structure used to store strings during the rspack-sources computation process. Throughout the computation, all string data points to the string heap memory of the root node, effectively avoiding the generation of new string allocations during the computation.

Reduced bundle size

Rspack v1.2.0 set default SWC minimizer passes to 2 to reduce bundle size by 1%-7%.

passes is the the maximum number of times to run compress. In some cases, more than one pass leads to further compressed code. Given Rspack's inherent speed, we've determined that using 2 passes by default strikes an optimal balance between build performance and bundle size.

Parallelize side effects optimization

The implementation of side effects optimization has been refactored to be simpler and more parallelism-friendly. It can take full advantage of parallelism to improve performance. In tested projects, there is typically a 2x-3x performance improvement at this stage.

Disable WarnCaseSensitiveModulesPlugin by default

The WarnCaseSensitiveModulesPlugin will check the paths of modules and issue warnings for modules that conflict when their paths are all in lowercase. We used to enable it by default, but since it is only a "linter" plugin and it has additional performance overhead especially in development mode. So now we disable it by default, and recommend to use WarnCaseSensitiveModulesPlugin to add it to your own needs.

// rspack.config.js
module.exports = {
  plugins: [new rspack.WarnCaseSensitiveModulesPlugin()],
};
