memory allocation cloud function

[eraac]

Does there are any reason to set 1024MB of memory for the cloud function? On our side the function never consume more than 80MB

Reducing the memory allocation can reduce cost, actually 1024MB is seven time expensive than 128MB. So we need to know if we can safely reduce the memory allocation

You can safely reduce memory yes. 1024MB is set because users often use this with Pub/Sub, which requires log parsing and thus a larger heap
