Description

#92 Phase 3: cost right-sizing for lecture-python.myst PR previews — g4dn.xlarge + spot for previews only (weekly/publish builds unchanged).

  • A/B a full cold run in 16 GB first
  • Scope spot to PR previews — QuantEcon/workspace-lectures#6 wants on-demand (spot=false) for long-running and GPU builds, so the boundary needs stating

Arithmetic in PROJECT-OPTIMIZE-PREVIEWS.md.

Research direction

Start with PROJECT-OPTIMIZE-PREVIEWS.md and the linked QuantEcon/workspace-lectures#6 discussion. Run the requested full cold-run A/B comparison in 16 GB, then verify how spot should apply only to PR previews while weekly and publish builds remain unchanged. Done means the cost tradeoff and the preview/on-demand boundary are documented and validated.
