Recommended AWS instance type for running (long) Cypress runs

[penzeliz]

Hi All,

I'd like to get a view of what type of AWS instances people are using or is recommended when running Cypress tests in a Docker container.

Currently, we're on a c5.2xlarge and we have the following issues and the tests are still running relatively slow - compared to our MacBooks, which should be less performant than a 2xlarge, am I right?

(Sometimes tests are hanging too - could be a different issue, I know there are a few bug reports around this... just adding it to the bucket :) We also have --disable-dev-shm-usage in Chrome options, and using cypress/browsers:node12.14.1-chrome85-ff81 - but it's been like this since forever)

Regards,

Zoltan

Same issue, cypress was smooth on local but some time hung, extremely slow on c6a.2xlarge runner
