Hmm, I don't know. I'm kind of partial to option C. Sure, it might not be the most sustainable solution, but it could buy us some time to figure out a better long-term strategy. And let's be real, sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do to keep the system running, you know?

You know, I was thinking the same thing, Jannette. Using cursors and limits is probably the way to go. It's more efficient than relying on offsets, and it should help keep those Firestore queries under control.

I think we should go with option B and modify the query with cursors and limits.

I'm leaning towards option B. Modifying the query to use cursors and limits could help reduce the load on Firestore and prevent those memory issues on Cloud Run. Plus, it seems like a more elegant solution than just throwing more resources at the problem.

Ugh, this question is tricky. I'm not sure if I should go with option B or C. Increasing the memory limits on Cloud Run might help, but I'm worried that won't be a long-term solution if the Firestore queries are the real issue.
