Great use case for edge functions and plugin systems. How does the startup latency compare to running the same code in a V8 isolate like Cloudflare Workers?

I haven't benchmarked it yet but, guts feeling, would expect it to be (a bit?) slower. Cloudflare has likely spent quite some effort optimizing it and also runs fast machine. Kyushu uses QuickJS which adds a layer that needs to be loaded but, it's pre-initialization in memory which should mitigate the cost.
