Caolan McMahon commented on COUCHDB-1075:
-----------------------------------------

Just FYI, this patch makes a fairly normal Kanso (http://kansojs.org) app 
respond around 10x faster on the initial request (the one rendered by CouchDB). 
Removing the  per-request limitation by commenting out the line 
"Couch.module_cache = {};" from State.reset you gain another 10x speed increase 
on-top of the previous for all subsequent requests.

I think the small risks of users abusing the module_cache for storing state 
between requests (which you might argue is at their own risk) are by far 
outweighed by the performance increases for serious couchapps.

> Having a CommonJS module A which requires B, when B also requires A causes 
> the stack to fill up with require calls. A prerequisite for this fix is the 
> caching of modules, even if it is only on a per-request basis.
> Patch incoming.
