Memory access of any type is often the slowest. This might just be a general law of computing regardless of level of the stack at this point.
In the serverless world, memory accesses are the most expensive with writes being the most expensive of all (where expensive == slow AND literally expensive)
- mi100hael 7y agoDo you have an example of that being the case? Memory is usually pretty quick compared to disk & network.
- noobiemcfoob 7y agoI mean memory, storage in a broad sense. Not a statement about in RAM or cache, though I see the confusion in retrospect. Having code access some sort of storage (better word than memory) is always the most expensive part.
