Vercel: The first execution of now-dev limited

[markozxuu]

Hi, unfortunately now-dev has some problems that impede me from using it in my application of chat 💔 😿

General remarks 👁

now-dev does not support now secret, apparently it does not affect the compilation of ncc if we have now secret in our file now.json Ideally, be warned that it does not support now-dev before compiling because this could make users believe that "now secret" is compatible, which is not for the moment :[

Main problems 🙍

• Overly long compile times

Overly long compile times

NOTE: the gif does not represent the total compilation time :]

now-dev has problems compiling with projects with package.json too long, the compilation times of ncc can be extended to 2:37:11 which has resulted that lambda never load our project

Example of auth-chat

Temporary solution

Recommendations: when now-dev is used, a user and a ncc folder is generated, every time I use now-dev I recommend removing those 2 folders, I've noticed that it has some problems related to the cache

for some strange reason, if we remove only one dependency and then reinstall the compilation time of ncc it will be much smaller than 2:37:11 gives as it turns out in the lambada loading correctly

with that we rule out that the problem is not the number of dependencies in your package.json
this relation to the first execution of lambda I do not know if the first execution is limited or something similar.

This appears to happen when the node_modules directory exists and is very large. Looking into the fix.

this problem was already solved thanks to the latest changes @TooTallNate @amio. The compilation time of ncc has just improved in this last binary, the waiting times were significantly reduced 🎉
