Swift AWS Lambda Runtime
Is there any recent rundown on the state of server-side Swift in general? I know there was a lot of discussion when IBM stopped working on it back in January.<p>At the broadest level, I wonder what the footprint of Swift at runtime is, both in terms of CPU and RAM. I&#x27;ve been really enjoying Kotlin as a server-side language - it&#x27;s a massive step up in productivity from TypeScript - but the overhead of the JVM certainly is notable, even in small personal projects (my small Javalin app uses four times the RAM at rest as my Express app did). Swift is really interesting to me because it is very similar in practice to Kotlin, but with some very cool and powerful additional language features. So, if server-side Swift has a smaller footprint at runtime and equal or better performance than Kotlin on the JVM[1], that&#x27;d be a really compelling language for me.<p>[1] yes, I know GraalVM&#x2F;native options exist for Kotlin, but every time I&#x27;ve tried to investigate ecosystem compatibility, it leads to me glancing at pages long-articles about &quot;how to configure X framework for GraalVM&quot; that make it not seem worth the effort yet
