In a startup you may not have the luxury of affording both devs and ops. Most of the time you end up having a devops guy who does a lot of both. Compilers are the same regardless of who's using them, but ops needs to be tailored for specific use-cases, which is very different.
Just like how a 3-in-one printer/scanner/fax machine does none of those jobs well in comparison to separate dedicated devices, you get what you pay for.
