The demo about the vm+server startup time is interesting, but I am glad to know about the way they use Nginx to proxy the request twice to do the provisioning of the vm+server.
Edit: I wonder if the numbers would be similar if the example was done with HaLVM (https://github.com/GaloisInc/HaLVM https://github.com/GaloisInc/HaLVM).
