Description

**Tell us about your request**
It would be great to see a reduction to the one minute minimum charge on Fargate tasks.

**Which service(s) is this request for?**
Fargate

**Tell us about the problem you're trying to solve. What are you trying to do, and why is it hard?**
We are looking at using Fargate tasks to allow us to quickly process millions of messages per day; however, most of these tasks would execute in under 20 seconds, so being charged for a full minute adds up. We can't use Lambda for these because they will typically require a minimum of 8GB of RAM.

Research direction

The issue names no repository files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing the Fargate request and its stated short-task pricing problem, then determine whether this roadmap repository has a path for service-pricing changes. Done would require an AWS decision to reduce the one-minute minimum charge.
