TURBOPACK TELEMETRY NOW SHIPPING, NODE LAMBDA STREAMING BUG SEALED

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Vercel

Vercel's build system fixed a silent streaming flip that could break custom AWS handlers, while Turbopack finally starts reporting what it's actually building.

The @vercel/node builder [1] now gates response streaming centrally for AWS Lambda custom handlers, plugging a gap where frameworks like Redwood could inadvertently enable streaming without explicit opt-in. This ships across NestJS, Koa, and Hono [2][3][4]. On the Next.js front, Turbopack production builds now report feature-usage telemetry [5], fixing a correctness bug in how metrics were counted — critical for understanding what features teams actually depend on at scale. The turbo-tasks engine got a proof-of-concept memory eviction system [6] that transparently swaps tasks to disk after snapshots, though it's not production-ready yet. Meanwhile, the chat SDK tightened its adapter internals [7], protecting extension points while keeping runtime state private — better forward compatibility for custom implementations. Release automation improved too [8], decoupling docs deployments from every main commit so they only publish after changesets actually succeed.
