Re:YOLOv5 on CPUs: Sparsifying to Achieve GPU-Level Performance by 37ef_ced3 on Saturday September 11, 2021 @12:19AM (#28489401)
$10 per month (i.e., $0.01389 per hour) Skylake cores: https://www.vultr.com/products/cloud-compute/

If you're not holding it for a full month, it's $0.015 per hour.

Here are the $1000 per month ($1.50 per hour) cloud GPUs I use, the cheapest that Linode provides: https://www.linode.com/pricing/

I would like to see a comparison of Linode vs Google Cloud, taking into account network bandwidth costs, etc. Maybe the Google Cloud T4's total cost of ownership is lower? I doubt it: for example, the Linode plan includes 16 terabytes of fast network traffic at no additional cost, and Google Compute charges $0.085 per gigabyte.

And the T4 is still 23x more expensive than an AVX-512 core, hourly.

boulos is 100% right that you are choosing to compare to particularly expensive GPUs instead of cheaper GPU instances that are actually intended for inference at low cost.

EDIT: please stop it with the ninja edits.
