Many simple apps don’t really need all the optimizations that the JVM offers. The vast majority of applications are probably going to have loads that can be handled just fine by running as native image. On the other hand, memory and CPU cost real dollars, and saving that can have a pretty huge impact on costs.
So the build time complexity may just be ok if I get to save a bunch of money by scaling down the amount of nodes I need for my K8s apps.
