Google App Engine and Google Cloud Functions got native support for Puppeteer a few months ago as well. Let me know what you think if you try it out.

The performance of puppeteer is super bad on CGF (you can read more about it here https://github.com/GoogleChrome/puppeteer/issues/3120). It would actually be great to have someone really improve this situation instead of dismissing it as a weird IO problem.
Did some research internally, this is being tracked but still no root cause AFAIK :(
Would love to use GCF but the performance is terrible (as mentioned) and I need more geographic locations than GCF offers.
