A standalone executable starts with the url.parse() latch set, so no caller gets the warning there. The warning is for the author of the call, and the user of the executable cannot act on it. `bun run` does not change.

Status: ready for review. How I reproduced it (linux x64, bun 1.4.3-canary.1+367d939d9 and main):
The same happens with express 5.3.0: a compiled server prints the line when a client sends an absolute-form request ( With this branch the executable prints nothing in each case, and The description has one question for a maintainer (Notes): should DEP0169 print by default at all, and should a switch bring it back in an executable. |

📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Remove the explicit test and hook timeouts.
Line 65 defines a per-test timeout of 60 seconds for debug and ASAN builds. Line 100 sets a 180-second timeout on beforeAll. Each test.concurrent call also passes timeout. The test guidelines forbid explicit timeouts. The repository runner already applies timeouts.
Remove the timeout constant, the timeout arguments, and the 180_000 argument. If debug executables do not fit within the runner timeout, ask the maintainers to handle that in the runner configuration. Do not override it in the test file.
Proposed change
-// A standalone executable of a debug or ASAN build is over 1 GB. It is slow to write and to start.
-const timeout = isDebug || isASAN ? 60_000 : undefined;
- beforeAll(async () => {
dir = tempDir("issue-16639", files);
- // One at a time: two writes of a debug executable at once take longer than one after the other.
exe = await compile("app", []);
exeWithSourcemap = await compile("app-sourcemap", ["--sourcemap"]);
- }, 180_000);
+ });Remove the trailing timeout, argument from every test.concurrent(...) call. Also remove isASAN and isDebug from the harness import.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
🟡 (optional) Developers who run a compiled executable with an explicit deprecation flag get no DEP0169 for their own url.parse() calls, where the base branch warns or throws. src/js/node/url.ts:128 seeds urlParseWarned to Bun.isStandaloneExecutable, so the check at url.ts:138 never fires in an executable even under --throw-deprecation, --trace-deprecation or --pending-deprecation. The PR calls this an accepted downside with no opt-in; it follows from the stated purpose but removes the only audit path for first-party callers. Fix: stay quiet by default in executables but honor an explicit opt-in, e.g. seed with Bun.isStandaloneExecutable && !process.pendingDeprecation (or also !process.throwDeprecation), and flip the 16639.test.ts assertion that --pending-deprecation prints nothing.
Why this was flagged
A developer builds bun build --compile app.js where app.js itself calls url.parse() and runs the result as BUN_OPTIONS=--throw-deprecation ./app in CI to catch deprecated API use. On the base branch url.ts:138 runs isInsideNodeModules(4), the frame name is /$bunfs/root/app, so DEP0169 is emitted and with --throw-deprecation the process exits 1. After this change src/js/node/url.ts:128 sets urlParseWarned to true at module load because Bun.isStandaloneExecutable is true, so the if (!urlParseWarned && ...) at url.ts:138 is never entered and process.emitWarning is never reached regardless of flags. process.pendingDeprecation / process.throwDeprecation are available (src/jsc/bindings/BunProcess.cpp:5157-5162) but nothing in url.ts consults them. test/regression/issue/16639.test.ts:138-145 pins this: it asserts that with --throw-deprecation --trace-deprecation --pending-deprecation the executable prints nothing and exits 0. The consequence is a lost diagnostic for first-party code in executables with no switch to restore it.
Verification: src/js/node/url.ts:128 let urlParseWarned = Bun.isStandaloneExecutable;, so the guard at url.ts:138 is dead in every executable realm regardless of CLI flags. On the base branch urlParseWarned = false, so first-party calls warned and, under --throw-deprecation, the process exited nonzero. test/regression/issue/16639.test.ts:138-145 pins {stdout:"done\n", stderr:"", exitCode:0} for first-party calls.

🟡 nit (optional): Maintainers get a test that sets its own timeouts, which test/CLAUDE.md forbids ("CRITICAL: Do not set a timeout on tests. Bun already has timeouts"). sweep:60_000|180_000 in test/regression/issue/16639.test.ts. The timeout const at test/regression/issue/16639.test.ts:65 is passed as the third argument of every test.concurrent, and beforeAll at line 100 gets 180_000. Fix: drop the explicit timeouts and rely on the runner's defaults (shrink the workload instead if debug/ASAN runs are too slow), or state in the file why the two compile steps need a longer window than the runner gives.
Why this was flagged
test/CLAUDE.md (section "No timeouts") says not to set a timeout on tests because the runner already has one. test/regression/issue/16639.test.ts:65 defines const timeout = isDebug || isASAN ? 60_000 : undefined and passes it to each of the nine test.concurrent calls; test/regression/issue/16639.test.ts:100 passes 180_000 to beforeAll. The repository guidance under review also says not to raise per-test timeouts to make a slow test pass. The base branch has no such file, so this is a convention slip the PR introduces rather than a runtime defect; the comment at line 64 ("A standalone executable of a debug or ASAN build is over 1 GB") explains the motivation but does not remove the rule.
Verification: nit. test/CLAUDE.md states at lines 118-120: "CRITICAL: Do not set a timeout on tests. Bun already has timeouts." The new file breaks it: test/regression/issue/16639.test.ts:65 const timeout = isDebug || isASAN ? 60_000 : undefined; is passed as the third argument to all nine test.concurrent(...) calls, and line 100 passes 180_000 as the beforeAll timeout.

🟡 (optional) Windows CI maintainers can see afterAll throw EBUSY after a single timed-out case, poisoning the whole file's report instead of one test. test/regression/issue/16639.test.ts:104 disposes the tempDir that holds the two running executables; a case that hits the 60s debug timeout at 16639.test.ts:65 leaves its child alive past the test, and DisposableString[Symbol.dispose] (test/harness.ts:616-625) gives up after 5s. Fix: kill any still-running child before disposing (track procs and proc.kill() in afterAll) or use await using with asyncDispose so a lingering child cannot turn a timeout into an unrelated cleanup error.
Why this was flagged
Every run() at 16639.test.ts:70-80 does await proc.exited, so on the happy path no child is alive at afterAll, which is what the dismissal relies on. The gap is the timeout path: when a debug or ASAN lane exceeds the per-test timeout (16639.test.ts:65 sets 60_000), bun:test reports the test failed but the async function and its spawned executable keep running; await using proc only disposes when that function eventually returns. afterAll at 16639.test.ts:104 then calls rmSync on the directory containing app.exe, which Windows refuses while the image is mapped; harness.ts:622 retries only for 5000ms and then rethrows, so maintainers see an EBUSY cleanup failure in addition to the timeout, and the tempDir is leaked on the persistent runner. Base branch has no such file, so this is new surface. Remedy: record spawned processes and kill them in afterAll before disposing the directory.
Verification: nit — triggers only on Windows when a test.concurrent case has timed out with its spawned executable still alive. The runner's timeout kill path skips concurrent groups (src/runtime/test_runner/Execution.rs:309-316), so the child outlives the test. afterAll at 16639.test.ts:102 then calls DisposableString[Symbol.dispose] (test/harness.ts:613-626), which retries 5 s on EBUSY then rethrows. Nothing on the base is affected.

bun build --compileexecutable prints[DEP0169] DeprecationWarning: `url.parse()` behavior is not standardizedfor a call in a bundled dependency.bun runprints nothing. Example: express 5.3.0 on an absolute-form request (exit 1 with--throw-deprecation).urlParse(src/js/node/url.ts:138) warns unless the caller's file is undernode_modules.

Question for a maintainer. On #16641 the answer to this same report was "Can we just not print any of these deprecation warnings ... Or pass some flag to opt in to printing them". #34660 restored the warning without a discussion of that answer. #46200 asks the same question for
bun run.--pending-deprecation? The executable is quiet under each answer, so this change does not wait for it.Bun.isStandaloneExecutable && !process.pendingDeprecationgives one. The test asserts that--pending-deprecationprints nothing: that assertion is the answer of this change, and it flips if the answer is opt-in.Reproduction. Linux x64.
