I know of one company that dumped its clojure code base because lambda costs were too high. They even experimented with graal as a fix.

I would have dumped lambda as a runtime before dumping the codebase. Obviously we don't know the full story but that sounds a lil silly to me.

Plus lambda's will stay alive for quite a while if they are in use. So startup time is felt once, but then would be identical to any other language or runtime.
