Performance optimization for Module Federation can be approached from multiple dimensions. Here are detailed optimization strategies:
1. Build Artifact Optimization
Code Splitting:
javascript// Remote application configuration new ModuleFederationPlugin({ name: 'remoteApp', filename: 'remoteEntry.js', exposes: { './Button': './src/Button', './Modal': './src/Modal' }, // Fine-grained exposure, avoid packaging unnecessary content splitChunks: { chunks: 'all', cacheGroups: { vendor: { test: /[\\/]node_modules[\\/]/, name: 'vendors', priority: 10 } } } })
Tree Shaking:
- Ensure using ES Module syntax
- Set
"sideEffects": falsein package.json - Avoid using CommonJS require
2. Loading Performance Optimization
Preload Critical Modules:
javascript// Preload during application idle time const preloadRemoteModule = () => { if ('requestIdleCallback' in window) { requestIdleCallback(() => { import('remoteApp/HeavyComponent') }) } } // Or use link tag for preloading const link = document.createElement('link') link.rel = 'preload' link.href = 'http://localhost:3001/remoteEntry.js' link.as = 'script' document.head.appendChild(link)
CDN Deployment:
- Deploy remoteEntry.js and module files to CDN
- Use HTTP/2 or HTTP/3 for accelerated transmission
- Configure reasonable cache strategy (Cache-Control: max-age=31536000)
3. Runtime Optimization
Shared Dependency Optimization:
javascriptshared: { react: { singleton: true, requiredVersion: deps.react, eager: false, // Avoid eager loading strictVersion: false // Allow version mismatch } }
Lazy Loading Strategy:
javascript// Use React.lazy and Suspense const RemoteComponent = React.lazy(() => import('remoteApp/Component') ) // Or use dynamic import const loadModule = async () => { const module = await import('remoteApp/Module') return module.default }
4. Cache Strategy
Versioned Filenames:
javascript// Webpack configuration output: { filename: '[name].[contenthash].js', chunkFilename: '[name].[contenthash].js' }
Service Worker Caching:
javascript// Cache remoteEntry.js workbox.routing.registerRoute( /.*remoteEntry\.js/, new workbox.strategies.NetworkFirst({ cacheName: 'remote-entries', plugins: [ new workbox.expiration.ExpirationPlugin({ maxEntries: 10, maxAgeSeconds: 7 * 24 * 60 * 60 }) ] }) )
5. Monitoring and Diagnostics
Performance Monitoring:
javascript// Monitor module loading time const loadRemoteModule = async (moduleName) => { const startTime = performance.now() try { const module = await import(moduleName) const loadTime = performance.now() - startTime console.log(`${moduleName} loaded in ${loadTime}ms`) return module } catch (error) { console.error(`Failed to load ${moduleName}:`, error) throw error } }
6. Best Practices
- Expose on demand: Only expose necessary modules, avoid packaging unrelated code
- Version control: Use semantic versioning to ensure compatibility
- Error boundaries: Add error boundaries for remote modules to avoid affecting the entire application
- Fallback strategy: Prepare local fallback components to handle remote loading failures
- Progressive loading: Prioritize loading core features, delay loading secondary features
Performance Metrics:
- First Contentful Paint (FCP) < 1.8s
- Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) < 2.5s
- Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) < 0.1
- First Input Delay (FID) < 100ms
Through these optimization strategies, the performance of Module Federation applications can be significantly improved.
