Is using an ES6 import to load specific names faster than importing a namespace?

Question

I\'ve found at least two ways to import functions in from a module like Ramda for example. There are probably a few more ways to do something very similar like const

@Bergi is right in his comment, which I think should be the answer. I would also like to point out you can always try things out in Babel to see what it compiles to: click here to see what an example destructuring actually does

So basically even if you destructure just one function from the module, the whole module will be required. In the Babel example I gave, I just extracted Component from the 'react' module, but the compiled code actually just required the whole thing. :)
