on GraalVM/native-image and Lambda, here's a post on using the newly released container support to create GraalVM native-image Lambdas: https://nitor.com/en/articles/fast-cold-starts-for-clojure-in-aws-lambda-using-graalvm-native-image (repo of the project, has some Terraform for deployment too https://github.com/luontola/native-clojure-lambda)

> The cold start time goes from 1500ms down to 10ms! nice :)
