Those numbers come straight from the npm registry, and they should make you slightly uncomfortable: nearly every build tool, test runner, bundler and linter you run ships a glob matcher you have never inspected — and if any of those tools let a user supply a pattern, a badly built matcher is a denial-of-service bug with a friendly UI.</p>
