Typing for Dynamic imports

So I have a function like this that uses a dynamic import like

export async function func1(image: uInt8Array[]) {
    const {decode, }= await import(
      "https://deno.land/x/imagescript@1.2.17/mod.ts"
    );
}

export async function func1(image: uInt8Array[]) {
    const {decode, }= await import(
      "https://deno.land/x/imagescript@1.2.17/mod.ts"
    );
}

But this function gets called like once a day, but it gets repeated called like 4 or 5 times at once. So I am just wondering if deno will import that module again and again for each time the function is called? I also tried something like this which breaks typing all together

let import = false
let decode;
export async function func1(image: uInt8Array[]) {
  if(!imported){
    const {decode:d }= await import("https://deno.land/x/imagescript@1.2.17/mod.ts");
decode = d
    imported = true
  }
// rest of the function
}

let import = false
let decode;
export async function func1(image: uInt8Array[]) {
  if(!imported){
    const {decode:d }= await import("https://deno.land/x/imagescript@1.2.17/mod.ts");
decode = d
    imported = true
  }
// rest of the function
}

No: Modules are singletons, subsequent imports get the same instance as the first one.
