Cloud is if anything where memory hurts more, because it's less shareable than CPU time and so renting it costs more. One of the big reasons I've seen cited for teams with a cloud based application switching from a GCd language like java to rust is because of the memory usage cost of the GC, which can be a 2x or even 3x multiplier compared to the same in rust.
