Reusify helps you reuse objects and functions to improve performance in Node.js, aiming for about 10% faster execution in hot code paths. It provides a pattern for getting cached instances, resetting their state, and releasing them back to the cache to reduce function allocation and garbage collector pressure.
Project status
- Maintenance status: The repository appears to be in active maintenance at least recently, with an upstream push on 2026-02-09. However, published updates are sparse (the last listed update is v1.1.0 on 2025-02-25), so day to day cadence is unclear.
- Update cadence (observed): Historically, updates are years apart (2018, 2015, etc.), then a more recent v1.1.0 in 2025. Compared to today (2026-09-10), the gap since the last listed update is ~1.5 years, even though there was activity in early 2026.

Recent updates
v1.1.0
v1.1.0 mainly focuses on adding TypeScript support and modernizing the project tooling and CI configuration. The published code diff, however, also changes the developer toolchain (linting, testing, coverage) and adds several repository configuration files that are not mentioned in the release notes.
Featuresv1.0.4
v1.0.4 release notes only mention restoring peak performance (PR #8), but the provided code diff does not show any core library change implementing that. The changes visible in the diff are primarily README/example updates, test additions, CI configuration, and devDependency bumps.
v1.0.3
The release notes claim only documentation and benchmark updates. The actual diff shows changes limited to CI configuration, README/benchmarks, and development toolchain dependencies, with no direct changes to the library’s runtime logic.
v1.0.1
Release v1.0.1 primarily updates CI and adds code coverage reporting via Coveralls. The code diff shows new CI configuration (Travis matrix, caching, and after_script) plus new npm scripts and dev dependencies for coverage instrumentation.
SecurityFeaturesv1.0.0
This release is the initial v1.0.0 publication. There are no release-note details beyond stating it is the first release, so no specific changes, fixes, or migration guidance can be inferred.
