surprised they didn't go straight into cloud-hypervisor, though I haven't actually tested with gpu yet but it is on my todo list. OCI layers can use zstd compression. I wonder if they are defeating layer sharing by splitting in 500 mb chunks. Lambda splits your image into chunks and shares at the block layer (I believe even same chunk different (user's?) container on a single host). Esp for 15 GB images I'd think using lazy pulling with nydus/stargz or whatever would be beneficial. I'd like to test out snapshotting, though my testing already boots a guest and runs a container in ~170ms; and I'm not actually sure how you write the guest init to signal it is ready for snapshotting and then wait properly (maybe you just sleep 1000?) so it resumes from the snapshot in a good state. I know fly has written about their use of snapshotting but I don't think it went into that detail. Cool stuff overall though, not worrying about locations and the yucky networking to do so seems nice
