Is there any performance improvement migrating from a Hobby dyno to a unique Standard-1X dyno on Heroku?

Apparently both have the same hardware specs. "Faster builds" and "Preboot" features (available on Standard dynos only) seem to only have impact on deploys.

As for general performance, is it correct to assume both Hobby and Standard-1X dynos will perform equally or am I missing something?

Is one dyno enough for Heroku?

Heroku provides enough free hours to run a single dyno continuously for a month, but if we need a worker dyno for background processing (most apps do), we will not have enough free dyno hours. Free dynos are for great for demos, experimentation, and perhaps a staging app. For production apps, we need to pay.

How many cores does a Heroku dyno have?

vCPU count In this case performance-l dynos have 4 physical cores and 4 hyper threads.

Is Heroku no longer free?

Starting October 26, 2022, we will begin deleting inactive accounts and associated storage for accounts that have been inactive for over a year. Starting November 28, 2022, we plan to stop offering free product plans and plan to start shutting down free dynos and data services.

Just received an official position from Heroku support:

"As far as runtime goes the 1X, Free, Hobby and Standard-1X dynos are identical. They have the same RAM, vCPU and ulimit restrictions."
