Summary
The minifier's improve phase now makes the same assumptions swc and oxc make, where terser is more conservative. This closes part of the size gap to both. The assumptions:
tryblock, which may be probing whether the global exists.void 0.The PR also adds two smaller wins:
catchbody'svarthat only redeclares the catch parameter, keeping the initializer's side effects.With both phases off, the output still matches terser's.
What kind of change does this PR introduce?
feat
Did you add tests for your changes?
Yes, in
test/unitCases/syntax-printer.unittest.js. Each new case checks that the output runs the same and is shorter. Five cases that terser keeps moved from the kept list to the improved list.Does this PR introduce a breaking change?
No. Code that patches built-in prototypes, or reads globals for their getters' side effects, can now minify differently. swc and oxc already assume the same.
If relevant, what needs to be documented once your changes are merged or what have you already documented?
n/a
Use of AI
Claude Code did the byte comparison against swc and oxc, wrote the code and the tests, and ran the checks. A human chose which assumptions to adopt.
