One improvement for performance is to remove nvm since it's notoriously slow. Volta (https://volta.sh/) is way more faster and built on rust.

Since I'm a big fan of toolchains as code, I've fallen in love with volta for managing my Node.js and Yarn versions. Don't forget commands like volta pin in Node.js projects to lock in versions to your package.json file!
What's New in Node.js 17

You can download Node.js 17 to your computer using the appropriate link for your operating system and architecture provided on the Node.js download page. A better way to manage Node.js releases on your machine is to use a Node.js environment management tool like Volta, which allows you to install and switch between multiple Node.js versions seamlessly.

For folks who use nvm and find it slow, try out Volta[1]. It’s much faster, and IMO a lot nicer to use in general.
