## Summary Lambda warm-invocations of logic functions were spending **~440 ms** re-parsing and re-evaluating the user bundle on every call. The executor wrote the user code to a **randomly-named** temp file and `import()`-ed it, so each warm call resolved to a new URL and Node's ESM cache could never reuse the previous module record. This PR makes the executor write to a **content-hash filename**, skip the write when the file already exists, and stop deleting it. Identical code now reuses the same module record across warm calls in the same container, dropping warm-invocation overhead by **~30–40%**. ## What changed - `executor/index.mjs`: temp filename derived from `sha256(code)`, write skipped when file exists, no `fs.rm` on cleanup. - `lambda.driver.ts`: single structured `[lambda-timing]` log per invocation with `totalMs / buildExecutorMs / getBuiltCodeMs / payloadBytes / invokeSendMs / reportDurationMs / billedMs / initDurationMs / coldStart`. Goes through the standard NestJS `Logger`. No behavioural change for callers: same input → same output, same error semantics. ### Caveat: module-scope state now persists across warm calls With a stable filename, the user bundle is evaluated **once per warm container**. Any module-scoped state or top-level side-effects in user code are now shared across invocations of the same container, instead of re-running on every call. This is documented in the executor and is the intended trade-off — module scope should be treated as a per-container cache, not as per-call isolation. ## Findings — measured impact Same logic function (`fetch-prs`, ~12k PRs to page through), same workspace, same Lambda config (eu-west-3, 512 MB), token cache primed. ### Warm invocations | Phase | Before fix | After fix | Δ | | -------------------------------------- | ------------- | -------------- | ------------ | | Executor `import(userBundle)` | ~440 ms | **~0 ms** | **-440 ms** | | Lambda billed duration | ~1.5–1.7 s | **~1.0–1.1 s** | **~30–40%** | | Server-perceived round-trip | ~1.7–2.0 s | **~1.0–1.2 s** | **~30–40%** | ### Cold starts Unchanged — the cache helps subsequent warm calls in the same container, not the first one. Init Duration stays ~130–170 ms; total cold call ~2.5–3.0 s. ### Stress Could not reproduce the previously-reported \"every ~10th call times out\" behaviour after the fix: - 30 sequential calls: max 1.7 s, median ~1.1 s, 0 timeouts - 50 concurrent calls: max 9.4 s (clear cold-start cluster), median ~1.5 s, 0 timeouts Hypothesis: the warm-import overhead was eating into the headroom against the function timeout under bursty load; removing it pushed everything well below the limit. ## Observability One structured log line per invocation, sent through the standard NestJS logger: \`\`\` [lambda-timing] fnId=abc123 totalMs=1187 buildExecutorMs=2 getBuiltCodeMs=3 payloadBytes=1466321 invokeSendMs=1180 reportDurationMs=992 billedMs=1000 initDurationMs=n/a coldStart=false \`\`\` \`coldStart=true\` whenever Lambda spun up a fresh container; on warm calls \`buildExecutorMs\` and \`getBuiltCodeMs\` collapse to single-digit ms, confirming the cache fix is working. ## Test plan - [ ] CI green. - [ ] Deploy to a Lambda-backed env, trigger a logic function several times in a row. - [ ] Confirm \`[lambda-timing]\` warm invocations show \`totalMs\` ~30–40% lower than before, and \`coldStart=false\` after the first call in a container. - [ ] Push a new version of an app; confirm the next call shows higher \`buildExecutorMs\` (new hash, new file written) followed by warm calls again. - [ ] Smoke test: errors thrown by the user handler are still surfaced correctly.
