Description

The Eyeglass API is currently optimized for wrapping a call to sass by transforming the options for a single compile. Often there are many files to compile that share the same compilation options and the work to discover eyeglass modules can be shared across those compiles.

In Eyeglass 3.0 we should expose a new class that optimizes for compiling many stylesheets and sharing the work of module discovery and resolution. The goal would be that this instance can be long lived and used to compile multiple versions of the same files over time.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by reviewing the existing Eyeglass API's single-compile option transformation and module discovery and resolution flow. Define how a long-lived instance should share that work across multiple stylesheet compiles, then verify the behavior for multiple versions of the same files.
