Did you run into cold start delays with GCP cloud functions? AFAIK it is one of the reasons many prefer AWS Lambda over GCP

We actually had a cold start tolerance of ±30 seconds and so far, very few jobs are out of that range. This was one of our main sticking points, and the Google guys gave us some great tips on how to reduce cold starts.
