I decided to try out Parcel v2 and its new powered JavaScript compiler (swc). On the 20k line #react project I tested a production build is about 8× faster than webpack. Dev server start-up is faster too. Incremental builds are about the same. #javascript
Graphic showing benchmark results comparing Parcel v2 production build time to webpack. The mean build time for Parcel is 1.148 seconds. For webpack the mean build time is 9.287 seconds.
