Size of VMs needed for full metagenomics test

[lynnlangit]

To run the workflow on the full metagenomics databases used by IDseq, we recommend starting with an Amazon EC2 r5d.24xlarge - you may want to say that this EC2 instance size includes

• 96 vCPUs
• ~ 8 GB RAM
• 4 * 900 GiB NVMe SSD instance storage (or ~ 3.6 TB total).
• AWS on-demand for this instance type is currently ~ $ 7 USD/hr.

Also which GCP instance type (and size) would be recommended for this test? - https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/machine-types
