What causes performance degradation when executing resource-intensive tasks on Micro instances?

Performance degradation on Micro instances when running resource-intensive tasks is related to the limited resources of such instances:

• Limited CPU capacity: Micro instances usually have few virtual cores and low CPU priority, which slows down intensive computations.
• Small amount of RAM: Insufficient RAM can lead to frequent swapping, significantly reducing performance.
• Disk subsystem limitations: Slow or IOPS-limited disks affect read/write speeds.
• Network limitations: Limited network bandwidth can slow down data-dependent tasks.

As a result, resource-intensive tasks on Micro instances often face bottlenecks in CPU and memory, leading to decreased performance.
