Tried this out with a basic set of React deps in package.json

Reloading now spends 10+s "installing dependencies" - pretty quick, and the UI is still interactive.

Also, Chrome has two "Google Chrome helper" processes each sitting at 550MB+ RSS. I'm not sure if "no node_modules black hole on disk" is quite as compelling if the black hole has merely been relocated to RAM.
