50% compared to what? AWS EC2? Lambda? Google Cloud Run?
Those sort of numbers without even having a pricing page give me 0 confidence sorry.

One example of recieving a 50% cost saving is from Amazon Machine Images (AMIs). We compared the cheapest official NGINX AMI available on the Amazon Marketplace[0] and then also ran an NGINX+Unikraft AMI. We ran the same workload using wrk[1] and then checked the bill at the end of the month, roughly $80 vs $40.

Most of the costs for using the NGINX AMI + t2.nano come from software (0.29/hr), not EC2 (0.006/hr).
That's like the worst instance you could pick to prove anything about the performance of your platform. At most you're telling me your AMI costs half of NGINX's... Which still is a lot more than just running Ubuntu with a free AMI.
