AWS Lambda vs. EC2 Latency (API Gateway is very slow)

You're right, and I agree it isn't apples to apples. I am still looking for ways to break the 150ms TLS handshake barrier (let me know if you have)

My intention was merely to point out the difference between bare/raw HTTP on ec2 vs API Gateway (which is only HTTPS).

But this comparison is in fact almost useless because the world is moving to HTTPS everywhere.

(almost instead of completely useless) because there's still a ~50ms Lambda penalty
