We experience about 2x memory usage when using cloud function in yarn 2 plug and play, zero install mode.
We recommend using a Procfile because it takes npm or yarn out of the path.
This makes me think that maybe, it should be somehow possible to alter default /bin/bash -c yarn functions-framework command into something more yarn pnp friendly, possibly by providing some form of custom procfile in the code deployed?
Alternatively - maybe there is some other issue in zero install mode? we do have workspace-tools plugin installed, and verified that yarn workspaces focus --all --production gets called during cloud function build process.
