Cold start up times still remain a pretty large issue (125ms start up for VM is still quite large) but some interesting papers trying to attack this, through strategies like snapshotting! https://arxiv.org/pdf/2101.09355.pdf Also predicting function calls to properly schedule and reduce cold start latency https://www.usenix.org/system/files/atc20-shahrad.pdf</p><p><a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2101.09355/">Paper and discussion history</a>.
