Running some build comparisons with Vite and Webpack for prod.
yarn build 13.41s user 1.14s system 220% cpu 6.598 total
yarn vite build 32.33s user 1.84s system 158% cpu 21.545 total
Vite, surprisingly, does not perform well as webpack on build BUT it is WAY easier to set up. No need for extra files or a lot of plugins.
For now, I'm keeping Webpack + related config to make it easier to roll back if we need it.
