By and large, yes. However, the responsiveness is highly variable. Both pods and nodes can automatically scale, though it is intended that this is somewhat gradual, by design (you don't want to spin up 4000 nodes because you have a 30 second spike). Because the functions tend to be _very_ small, you can (likely) pack many of them together without having to scale. Disclosure: I work at Google on Kubernetes
