I wonder how the lambda code impacts this result? Would a rust lambda compare more favouribly?

It is likely to have an impact. Like I tried to scratch without going too much in detail as this is worth a complete article on its own:

Some factors will influence this, like the chosen implementation and runtime of the AWS Lambda function.
💡 Please checkout the awesome article of my AWS Community Builder fellow Alexandr Filichkin about a performance comparison of the different lambda runtimes.

[...] be cautious in generalizing the test results. There is a lot you can do to optimize your AWS Lambda functions to optimise for performance efficiency.
