> The hit I see is by providers of 'serverless' computing, since they charge per request and have their margins reduced.

AWS, Azure, and GCP all bill serverless with a combination of per-request fees and compute (GB-seconds), so I'd expect the entire hit to be passed on to the user since this will cause increased compute time for each request. N requests that used to average 300ms each will now be N requests that average, say, 400ms, so the per-request billing remains the same and the compute billing will increase by approximately 30%.
