Description

We can already detect and report program building hot-paths (chiefly in findSourceFile), but the output is confusing. We would need to identify imports with high self time and then report causal chains for those.

Research direction

Start with the existing hot-path reporting around findSourceFile and inspect sample output from tsc --generateTrace. Determine how imports with high self time should be identified and how their causal chains should be represented. Done means program-construction output clearly reports those imports and their causes.
