I don't see how they could not benefit. How many pitches a game are they seeing? Like 15? If you had the pitches for it (I don't think they do), it seems like you could do a few hundred a day if you were deliberately practicing.
The dragonflybsd community is great. When I was experimenting with it, their freenode channel was super helpful, often with Matt himself answering questions. I ran into a bug after an upgrade and he had a patch up in like an hour.
I've been deploying my stuff in linux containers recently, and I really like that flow. I really hope something like Jetpack (https://github.com/3ofcoins/jetpack) can eventually provide a solid OCI implementation on top of jails and hammer (not sure what containers demand of a filesystem, I know jetpack is currently focused on ZFS).
I still think containers are great, and I really like the abstractions kubernetes provides, but if I ever had enough traffic to worry about scaling, I envision running a small cluster of very powerful computers rather than 100s of weak ones.
