Mostly valid, but... On the RAM front, I am now approaching terabyte levels of services for what would be gigabyte levels of monolith. The reason is that I have to deal with mostly duplicate RAM - the same 200+ MB of framework crud replicated in every process. In fact a lot of microservice advocates insist "RAM is cheap!" until reality hits, especially forgetting the cost is replicated in every development/testing environment. As for slow startup, a server reboot can be quite excruciating when all these processes are competing to grind & slog through their own copy of that 200+ MB and get situated. In my case, each new & improved microservice alone boots slower than the original legacy monolith, which is just plain dumb, but it's the tech stack I'm stuck with.
