## Investigation Brief
SvelteKit bundles routes together by default to avoid excessive cold starts. Treat `split: true` as a targeted tradeoff, not a blanket optimization.
## Evidence To Check
Use cold-start share, cold-vs-warm latency, deployment concentration, and source bundle pressure. Check adapter options and whether a large dependency belongs to one route or the whole app.
## Do Not Recommend When
Do not split every route without evidence of function size pressure or route-local initialization cost. Do not split if cold starts are already the dominant problem.
## Verification
Name the cold-start signal, route or dependency that motivates the split, and the exact adapter config line.
