A modern commodity server can contain up to 1TB of RAM, and Lambda functions can use as little as 128MB. So you need up to 8000 functions on a server to fill the RAM (more in practice due to soft allocation). This also makes any solution very sensitive to per-function (per isolation unit) overheads.
