strong-globalize takes too long to load and initialize #158

Description

@bajtos

At the moment, it takes about 200-300ms to load strong-globalize module.

$ cd packages/runtime
$ time node -e "require('.')"

real	0m0.312s
user	0m0.159s
sys	0m0.081s

This is makes it impractical to use strong-globalize-powered frameworks like LoopBack when new Node.js processes are frequently created, e.g.

  • in serverless (function-as-a-service) settings
  • when using test runners providing process-isolation, e.g. node-tap
  • when testing CLI tooling scaffolding new projects and starting the scaffolded code as part of the test
