I dug up a little inside the conf module code and appears to me that each get/read function call uses the fs readFileSync to get the data from the config file.
If I need to constantly check for a value from the app settings it can lead to performance issues. So my approach is to copy the settings to a global variable 👎 and only use this module to write the config file when some changes occur.

Are any alternative approach to this problem or do you plan to add a feature to kinda "cache the values" and only reads the file when there are some changes?

Thank you
