Hey HN! Creator of RefRem here. We are two geeks working from Europe (Marcus is a cofounder of Pond5.com). We’re hoping to get feedback from any of you who are JVM users running serverless workloads.<p>Cold startup is a huge problem routinely taking above 10-15 seconds with spikes in RAM usage as high as 240MB -- both these problems discourage adoption of Java serverless.<p>RefRem (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;refrem.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;refrem.com</a>) automatically converts your jar files into a bundle ready to run in an AWS Lambda. During our tests RefRem reduced RAM x5, and cold startups showed drops from 10 seconds to 100 ms.<p>Please sign up, and test it out. We are eager to see what the community will make of it.<p>Marcus and Nicolas
