I've been watching the spot prices for memory and cloud instances lately. It feels like the era of "hardware is cheap, throw Electron/JVM at it" is hitting a wall. I recently pushed a Rust binary to production for a side project simply because I couldn't afford the RAM for a Node app on the cheapest VPS tier anymore. The memory footprint is practically a rounding error compared to the interpreted/GC'd stuff I usually write. Is anyone else prioritizing Rust (or Zig/C++) purely for economic reasons now? It feels like the lack of a Garbage Collector is becoming less about performance and more about pure unit economics.
