Link to the code that reproduces this issue

https://github.com/eiiot/next-routes-rerendering

To Reproduce

1. Build the application with next build
2. Run with next start

Current vs. Expected behavior

RootLayout rendered is logged twice per request when it should only be logged once. This causes a bunch of issues, including fetching data from APIs twice.
