Benchmarking dashboard performance

This post details performance improvements made to the Cloudflare dashboard, focusing on reducing JavaScript payload by deduping dependencies (lodash, icon library), refactoring bloated packages, and removing unused code. It also describes code splitting the monolithic application into authenticated and unauthenticated sub-applications to load only necessary code on demand. Finally, it explains optimizations to dead-code elimination (tree-shaking) by marking modules that don't produce side-effects. Key results show a reduction in total assets served and improved Lighthouse performance scores.
