Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

@zeropg/lease

v0.0.1

Published

Early experiment in the cheapest possible scale-to-zero Postgres. Single-writer lease on object storage for zeropg: conditional-create acquire, CAS renew/takeover, monotonic fencing tokens. No coordination service, no clock dependence for correctness.

Readme

@zeropg/lease

A single-writer lease built entirely on object-storage conditional writes. No coordination service, no clock dependence for correctness.

  • acquire() — conditional create of lease.json; if held and unexpired → LockedError; if expired → CAS takeover with a strictly increasing fencing token (floored by the manifest, so tokens are monotonic across the bucket's whole history).
  • renew() — CAS on our own version; failure means we were taken over → FencedError. validate() — cheap read-path check. release() — CAS- guarded delete so successors can acquire instantly.
  • tookOver tells the caller a previous holder may still be alive (zeropg uses this to fence-stamp the manifest immediately).

Correctness comes from the conditional writes; the clock only tunes how aggressively expired leases are taken over. Validated live: 100/100 stale renewals rejected, 100/100 stale commits rejected, zero two-holder windows, plus a live two-service zombie test on Cloud Run (repo experiments E1, E4).
