Re:Parcel – A fast, zero configuration web application bundler by nine_k on Tuesday December 05, 2017 @03:56PM (#15855871)
See it as a silly but efficient cache.

Well, npm may implement some kind of content-addressable storage to transparently deduplicate the dependencies tree on disk. It's not quite easy to do well.

As long as your bundle size is small, and the build times are fast, it's a clear improvement, at the expense of spending like 0.15% of even the cheapest 60GB SSD.
