I would point out that this is not the hit you think at SSG but at their current build system.
You could imagine a distributed build system for this that would build it really fast for competitive price on any ci/lambda/batch system.
The fact we barely hear anyone talk about this is the strange twist of history the parent made.

- di4na 5y agoLower cost, better use of hardware, better scalability, easier debugging, more robustness to failure, etc etc
