Vercel Labs' ScriptC trades sustained TypeScript throughput for millisecond startups
Vercel Labs' experimental ScriptC compiles TypeScript to native binaries that started in 1.78ms against Node's 61.78ms in one benchmark. The gain holds for short, statically typed programs, while framework code and sustained compute both ran slower than Bun or Node.
