Summary

The Supabase team has rolled out significant updates to Edge Functions, resulting in reduced function size and boot time by up to 300% for functions using npm modules. The improvements were achieved through lazy evaluating dependencies, reducing npm package section size, and switching from SHA-256 to xxHash-3 hashing functions. To take advantage of these performance gains, users can update the Supabase CLI to version v1.195.2 or later and redeploy their functions by running `supabase functions deploy [FUNCTION_NAME]`. The Edge Runtime is fully open-source, and community contributions are encouraged.
