If Iâm understanding correctly, Vercel Fluid is all about persisting / reusing server VMs so a brand new one isnât spun up for every single request to a server function? Curious why this couldnât just have been the way Vercel worked from the beginning? @rauchg https://youtu.be/8a4_AAds0vU https://vercel.com/docs/functions/fluid-compute

Itâs harder than it sounds. The naive way of doing it can also result in overloading the function instance and degrading performance. The very attractive thing about the 1:1 request to function model was a complete eradication of the ânoisy neighborâ problem that e.g.: VPSs suffer from. tl;DR: We focused on quality first then optimized.

My theory is that vercel heavily leverages Amazon lambda since it was conceived when serverless was very trendy. You canât persist servers on Amazon lambda.

Sometimes I feel like weâre doing a lot of work to avoid a server and a caching layer
