Problem/Motivation
Core added an assets:
stream wrapper which allows for aggregates to be stored separate from the public files directory, this is mostly for the case when the public files directory is on s3 or a similar remote storage.
#3486412: Very slow Drupal to load translated nodes/many internal redirects to translated pages/ late server response time 15s due to Drupal translation logic. suggests (but does not yet confirm) that serving JavaScript translations from s3 might also be a problem.
Steps to reproduce
Proposed resolution
I think we can just change public:
to assets:
in the relevant spots, add a change record, and everything will work.
