Hello Jakob,

Thank you for your response. I will make sure to design my application
accordingly.

My next question would be, does v8 optimize according to new prototype
changes after a while? Or should I restart the application in certain
periods to make sure the application is optimized with newly added
functions?

My next question is, do all functions have to be in a file in order to
optimization to not be broken? Because my idea was to keep all
functions in a database and then add them to prototypes whenever
application's restarted.
