Research direction

Read the README note about webpack_build and the surrounding Webpack documentation first. Check the project history or maintainer context for the concrete improvements Dropbox experienced, such as speed or restart time. Done when the README explains those benefits clearly rather than posing the question.

Description

Hi there,
I was curious about this note in the README about webpack_build:

Making the experience of using webpack better within Dropbox was one of the reasons we wrote these rules.

Can you elaborate a little further on how it's made the experience of using Webpack better? Is it faster? Shorter restarts?

Thanks,
Kevin
