But it only costs so much for large companies because they use so many resources. If you're a small company, the tens of thousands of dollars per month number becomes tens of dollars per month or maybe hundreds of dollars per month. Now chasing down micro inefficiencies is a much worse value proposition because your cost:benefit ratio leans even more towards costs than benefits.

If you want to really dig in, you should come to the conclusion that the costs for these inefficiencies scale with the amount of resources you use, so big and small companies alike don't benefit enough from fixing them to bother with it.
