nextjs API routes become unresponsive in dev mode

I am encountering a problem where the API routes become completely unresponsive in dev mode.

To demonstrate this, I have created this minimal example.
https://github.com/amit13k/create-t3-app-example2

The changes that were made to the generated t3 app are as follows,

1. top level await was enabled

     webpack: (config, options) => {
     config.experiments = {
     "topLevelAwait": true,
     "layers": true
     };
     return config;
     },

     webpack: (config, options) => {
     config.experiments = {
     "topLevelAwait": true,
     "layers": true
     };
     return config;
     },

2. There is an api route called example which uses an export named "someValue" from "src/lib/someModule".
3. In the file "someModule", "someValue" is exported similarly to how prisma get's exported to prevent problems related to multiple instances during npm run dev.

"/api/example" works fine the first time. But if we make some changes to src/pages/index.tsx which leads to fast refresh, /api/example becomes unresponsive.

I am not entirely sure why this happens, but it definitely seems related to node global and the top level await being used.

If I don't use an async function with top-level await (rest everything being the same), this problem doesn't happen.

Trying to understand why this happens and looking for suggestions on how to make this work with async functions.
