Each cloud-native evolution is about using the hardware more efficiently. The disincentive to game service pricing levels in order to create short-term profits at the expense of long-term investment will be overwhelming. Does anyone really want to go back to the VM-centric days when we rolled everything ourselves?

The answer is hardware interrupts. CPU power efficiency is strongly tied to how long the CPU can stay asleep ( 8+ ms is apparently a good number ), and random wakeups work against that. If multiple threads can synchronize or coalesce their timer waits then the system becomes more power efficient.

To be clear, these languages were not designed to be fast or space-efficient, but for ease of use. Unfortunately, languages like Python have proven resistant to efficient implementation, partly because of their design, and partly because of limitations imposed by the need to interop with C code.
