I love the developer experience that Heroku provides, however I wish the would lower their prices a little bit and/or introduce additional pricing tiers.
## The dynos are quite expensive by current standards
AWS has been continually dropping their prices, however those savings haven't been carried over to Heroku? Either:
1) lower pricing, or
2) improve the resource allocation for the current dynos at the same price point, e.g. 1x dyno - x1CPU + 1GB, and 2x dyno - x2CPU + 2GB.
## There is a big gap between 2x and Performance dynos
Java apps are recommended to run with 1GB RAM, so practically my only option is to continue to scale horizontally [1]. Maybe there is an opportunity for a x2 CPU and 2GB dyno at $100/mo?
Notes:
[1] - I would have loved to have a bit more memory at my disposal. 1.5 / 2GB would be ideal, but upgrading from 2x to Performance is too big of a jump ($70/mo to $570/mo).
