Yep but the first stage is free and is honestly more than enough for a
small website/app (which I guess is the target if 95% Pier setups).
Then more processing power (or a background job queue) starts at $35.
Database is free up to 10k rows ($9/month up to 10M rows). If you want
more data/robustness/speed a database with a 400MB cache is $50/month.
I don't know the size of a typical smalltalk webapp but it seems to me
that 80% of them are pretty lightweight. The remaining 20% probably
already have their custom setup suiting their needs.
But I would love to be completely wrong.

It's hard to evaluate the market size for a Pharo/Seaside PaaS. Who would pay
for it? How much? Do you mind paying 10~20€/month per app for a small instance?
Euh, that seems like extremely cheap - I am not a RoR/Heroku user, but it seems
they are way more expensive, hundreds of $ per month for anything non-trivial,
right ?
