other option is to manually update the lambda function if it's a one off by adding VERSION=blahblah to force a redeploy

03/10/2022, 7:05 PMthat was the main motivator for supporting esm in sst so that you can use top level await
thdxr
03/10/2022, 7:05 PMyou can load ssm /secrets once and then everything can use it without awaiting it
