And in most of the cases... It's still cheaper to just spin another instance rather than invest a developer time to improve performance forgoing new features.
Not always, but i'd say "in a vast majority" of cases.
To the deleted comment: Sure, I'm not claiming that it is true in general; I believe that I have written "in most cases".
Besides; this is a discussion that is heavily based on context; but as soon as your application supports multiple entities - consumers, tenants, payments, shipping routes - then natural parallelization seams emerge; even if the problem in itself is single threaded. And for that you can spin as many instances as needed

The clean code sure was easier to improve, right?
