+/**
+ * TanStack Start Production Server with Bun
+ *
+ * A high-performance production server for TanStack Start applications that
+ * implements intelligent static asset loading with configurable memory management.
+ *
+ * Features:
+ * - Hybrid loading strategy (preload small files, serve large files on-demand)
+ * - Configurable file filtering with include/exclude patterns
+ * - Memory-efficient response generation
+ * - Production-ready caching headers
+ *
+ * Environment Variables:
+ *
+ * PORT (number)
+ *   - Server port number
+ *   - Default: 3000
+ *
+ * ASSET_PRELOAD_MAX_SIZE (number)
+ *   - Maximum file size in bytes to preload into memory
+ *   - Files larger than this will be served on-demand from disk
+ *   - Default: 5242880 (5MB)
+ *   - Example: ASSET_PRELOAD_MAX_SIZE=5242880 (5MB)
+ *
+ * ASSET_PRELOAD_INCLUDE_PATTERNS (string)
+ *   - Comma-separated list of glob patterns for files to include
+ *   - If specified, only matching files are eligible for preloading
+ *   - Patterns are matched against filenames only, not full paths
+ *   - Example: ASSET_PRELOAD_INCLUDE_PATTERNS="*.js,*.css,*.woff2"
+ *
+ * ASSET_PRELOAD_EXCLUDE_PATTERNS (string)
+ *   - Comma-separated list of glob patterns for files to exclude
+ *   - Applied after include patterns
+ *   - Patterns are matched against filenames only, not full paths
+ *   - Example: ASSET_PRELOAD_EXCLUDE_PATTERNS="*.map,*.txt"
+ *
+ * ASSET_PRELOAD_VERBOSE_LOGGING (boolean)
+ *   - Enable detailed logging of loaded and skipped files
+ *   - Default: false
+ *   - Set to "true" to enable verbose output
+ *
+ * ASSET_PRELOAD_ENABLE_ETAG (boolean)
+ *   - Enable ETag generation for preloaded assets
+ *   - Default: true
+ *   - Set to "false" to disable ETag support
+ *
+ * ASSET_PRELOAD_ENABLE_GZIP (boolean)
+ *   - Enable Gzip compression for eligible assets
+ *   - Default: true
+ *   - Set to "false" to disable Gzip compression
+ *
+ * ASSET_PRELOAD_GZIP_MIN_SIZE (number)
+ *   - Minimum file size in bytes required for Gzip compression
+ *   - Files smaller than this will not be compressed
+ *   - Default: 1024 (1KB)
+ *
+ * ASSET_PRELOAD_GZIP_MIME_TYPES (string)
+ *   - Comma-separated list of MIME types eligible for Gzip compression
+ *   - Supports partial matching for types ending with "/"
+ *   - Default: text/,application/javascript,application/json,application/xml,image/svg+xml
+ *
+ * Usage:
+ *   bun run server.ts
