Streams
ℹ️ Metric definitions & methodologyStreams: first-chunk RTT (the stream-open path, before any buffering/backpressure), CRTT percentiles, and worst delivery stall (CDV max). Cells are medians across iterations; per-run values in the artifacts. No 🔴/🟢 marks until targets attach. The collapsed STSO distribution section above buckets every step gap, split inline (same warm process — pure framework overhead) vs queue-hop (fresh process — dispatch, reinit, replay). The collapsed CRTT drill-down: per-variant RTT histograms (fixed log bins, Best/P75/P90/P99 deltas compare against the most recent benchmark run on Metrics — TTFS: time to first step body (in-deployment start() → first step body) · Fan-out TTFS: fan-out time to first step (in-deployment start() → first of the parallel step bodies to complete) · Fan-out TTLS: fan-out time to last step (in-deployment start() → last of the parallel step bodies to complete, i.e. when the Promise.all resolves) · STSO: step-to-step overhead (gap between consecutive step bodies) · WO: workflow overhead (whole-run time outside step bodies, in-deployment anchored) · CRTT: chunk round-trip time (per-chunk write → read latency, one clock domain: deployment → stream backend → same deployment) · CDV: chunk delay variation / delivery jitter (inter-arrival gap minus inter-write gap per seq-adjacent pair; skew-free; the row is each run's MAX positive value, so one stall moves it) Scenarios — step: one trivial no-op step, no stream; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · stream: one streaming step; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · hook + stream: registers a hook before one step, which exits turbo mode (dispatch path) · 1020 steps: 1020 trivial sequential steps; STSO is measured between consecutive steps in the given step ranges, and WO is the whole-run overhead outside step bodies · Promise.all(100 steps): 100 trivial no-op steps started together in a single Promise.all; Fan-out TTFS is the first of them to complete and Fan-out TTLS the last, both from the in-deployment clientStart, so their gap is the spread the runtime adds across the fan-out · paced control (100/s, 60B): the control: 300 tiny (~60B) deltas metronome-paced at 100/s — zero workload structure, so it reads the transport floor and flush cadence, and disambiguates transport-wide vs workload-specific when a replay row moves · size sweep (100/s, 160B-12KB): same pacing as the control with deltas padded in rotation across seven log-spaced sizes (~160B–12KB) — rotation decouples size from stream position, so it isolates whether chunk size causes latency · replay gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t (1x): raw provider SSE cadence captured at the AI gateway boundary (gpt-5.4-nano, the most popular gateway model; per-token deltas p50 208B = the modal production chunk size), replayed exactly as measured — the typical customer's workload; its CDV is the typical customer's real delivery jitter · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (1x): a captured eve turn (gpt-5.6-sol, the most-used demanding eve model; ~2000 output tokens = production p50 turn length) replayed exactly as measured — eve's envelope protocol re-ships the cumulative message so sizes ramp 142B→13KB; the demanding outlier tenant's reality · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (2x): the same eve capture at 2x — the headroom/stress row; real fast-tier models emit the same chunk sizes at proportionally higher rate, so time compression is a faithful speed model · first chunk (pooled): every run's seq-0 RTT pooled across all stream scenarios — the first chunk precedes any workload differentiation, so pooling samples one shared stream-open path with exact percentiles Replay cadences (semantic sha256) — eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t 🔴 marks a percentile over its target (within target is left unmarked). Targets (p75/p90/p99, ms) — TTFS 200/300/600 All timestamps are deployment-side; runs are triggered in-deployment, so the CI runner and api.vercel.com sit outside every measured window. TTFS = Cold starts stay in the numbers (real bursty-workload latency, inflates P75+); Best is the warm floor. |

Vite calls hotUpdate once per environment (client, ssr, and any a framework adds, such as Nitro's) for each file change. The plugin rebuilt every workflow on each call, so a single edit cost two to three full rebuilds, run back to back before Vite sent any HMR update. Remember each change by (timestamp, file), which Vite shares across a change's environment calls, and skip the repeats. Signed-off-by: Alex Langenfeld <alex.langenfeld@vercel.com>

Summary & Motivation
Vite calls
hotUpdateonce per environment (client, ssr, and any a framework adds) for a single file change, and the plugin rebuilt on each call — so one edit cost two to three full rebuilds, back to back, before any HMR update went out. The backlog leaked pastdev.test.tsinto the e2e suite, where a rebuild stalling a race workflow's 1s sleep madesleepWinsRaceWorkflowthe most-retried test on main (12 retries in 9 of the last 30 runs, nearly all in the vite and tanstack-start dev lanes). In this vite dev lane, all 24 rebuilds came fromdev.test.tsedits, took 2.5–17s each on the runner, and were still draining 1.5 minutes into e2e. Environment calls for one change share a timestamp, so the plugin now remembers each(timestamp, file)and skips the repeats.Affects every integration using
workflowHotUpdatePlugin: vite, nitro/tanstack-start, sveltekit, astro.Test Plan
Unit tests added for the deduplication, including interleaved changes; verified locally against
workbench/vitedev: onedev.test.tsrun made 10 changes, each delivered to 3 environments, and rebuilds dropped from 21 to 8 withdev.test.tsstill passing. Without the fix, 3 of the new tests fail.
