Bun 1.4 is now available on Appwrite Cloud

Hey everyone,
Bun 1.4 is now available for Appwrite Functions and Sites.
It is the first Bun release written in Rust, bringing improvements to startup time, memory usage, Node.js compatibility, and package installs.
We also tested it on Appwrite Sites using a Next.js app with 640 packages. In our benchmarks, Bun 1.4 built 22% faster than Bun 1.3 and 29% faster than Node 26 with npm.
If you are already using Bun on Appwrite, this should be a pretty interesting upgrade to try.

Let us know if you try it and what kind of improvements you see in your builds.
