Is that just for extensions installed via composer? Or for any extension
installed the normal way which has a composer.json? I mean, is it
possible to "optimize" loading by adding a composer.json for an
extension and setting that environment-variable?
For optional sysexts afaik we already ship a composer.json - so would
they benefit already from just setting that env-variable?
