So this mean having a multi megabytes zip for the function instead of 1kb with a native runtime, this also affect cold start loading time of the lambda function

  Does this really affect the cold start? Even if you use the native runtime it still is running in a separate container and you need to start the node process anyway. (Honest question, didn't measure it). The size would definitely be affected.

  True. I read that someone builds a Reason/OCaml library with Node.js like API that compiles to native binaries, but uses OCaml standard libary functions in the background, which could probably get much smaller than Node.js.
