Overview
Currently, I am running a TypeScript program from this repository.
node --loader ts-node/esm ./examples/ts/cli.ts bitget fetchBalance
The TypeScript version of this program takes significantly longer to run compared to the JavaScript version.
node --loader ts-node/esm ./examples/ts/cli.ts bitget fetchBalance 14.73s user 0.60s system 153% cpu 10.010 total
node ./examples/js/cli.js bitget fetchBalance 0.49s user 0.07s system 14% cpu 3.756 total
I am exploring ways to reduce the runtime of this program and one area I am investigating is the way in which TypeScript is being executed.
TSX Error
Prior to executing a git reset --hard, TSX was functioning properly. However, after the reset, I encountered the following error despite having installed JSBN:
% tsx ./examples/ts/cli.ts bitget fetchBalance
node:internal/errors:484
ErrorCaptureStackTrace(err);

Solution Suggestions from Stack Overflow
Issue with Solution 1
If I remove
"type": "module",package.json, it leads to another error:
import fs from 'fs';
^^^^^^
SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module
Problem with Solution 2
"compilerOptions": {
"esModuleInterop": true,
}
This setting already exists in my tsconfig.json file.

ts-node-esm Challenge
When attempting to utilize tsx-node-esm, I encountered the following errors:
