Previously these files were written asynchronously in an attempt to improve performance, since the success of the write is not critical. While I stand by my claim that it's acceptable for these writes to fail, I noticed recently that the async write was failing very often (resulting in an empty .meteor-portable-2.json file). Switching to sync semantics eliminated that problem with no noticeable loss of performance. In fact, overall performance is likely better because of the future work saved by a successful write.

- in modern JavaScript
- that send data over the wire, rather than HTML
- using your choice of popular open-source libraries
