This was one of the most surprising observations from nearly 1,000 repeated fresh cloud deployments. Curious whether others have seen any similar cases where price turned out to be a poor predictor of long-term behavior.

Totally agree. The highest benchmark number is easy to chase. We're more interested in answering a different question: "If I deploy this same VM again next week, what should I expect?" That's the whole reason we keep rer

Small OCI terminology note that I hadn't realized before adding OCI to the dataset: Oracle uses "OCPU" differently than the vCPU language most AWS/GCP/Azure users are used to. In OCI, 1 OCPU generally maps to 1 phys

Still an early observation window (3 runs per cluster), so we're not drawing concrete conclusions just yet. We start doing that starting at 6 runs+ with temporal spacing between clusters but these patterns are def interesting so far...

Maybe nothing. Maybe something. Not sure. Fun to ponder either way. Jun 6: $60.09/mo (first cluster) Jun 15: $153.59/mo (second cluster) Same provider/region/plan - benchmark data almost identical. But that sizey bump

True story. Lot of cheaper providers vs. the biggies (and mediums) and we're slowly documenting all this 'behavior'.

For sure. At some point the math starts favoring bare metal over rented compute. Especially if VPS prices keep rising faster than the underlying infrastructure.

Yer not wrong. Hetz bang/buck pretty nice for the most part. We'll see how/if that changes going forward with additional clusters we'll be doing.

Nine days apart! Maybe weird timing but pretty insane. Jun 6: $60.09/month ---> Jun 15: $153.59/month -Same provider/region/plan. In that span we reran the benchmarks and found the infrastructure behavior was nearly
