The cost to run those benchmarks with AWS was close to $50,000 just in infrastructure cost ( that was the main reason we jumped from 16 shards to 64 shards at the larger instance size, we wanted to show the top end, but we didn't have the resources to do all the sizes in between ), that doesn't even account for the engineering time to put together the solution and run the tests. We would love to have more funding to run those kinds of tests, but Vitess doesn't have a big sponsoring company to bankroll it the way some other projects do.
