Looking at one of the CI runs, they're mining between 2-4 cents of TRTL per 6 hour CI step, and running 98 steps per run. So around $2-4 per CI run. GH hosted

Looking at one of the CI runs, they're mining between 2-4 cents of TRTL per 6 hour CI step, and running 98 steps per run. So around $2-4 per CI run.
GH hosted CI runs use Azure DS2 v2 instances. I'm not sure how GH is billed by Microsoft for compute, but the 3 year reserved pricing is $0.0405/hour.
So all up, that's around $2-4 of TRTL for $23.81 of compute.
Plus there's the real and opportunity cost of needing to assign engineers to try and prevent this from happening.
