Just FYI amazon's EC2 as example:
M1-large instance can do a build (accellerated using ccache) in around
7 hours → too slow
M3-xlarge instance can do a build (accellerated usin ccache) in a
little less than two hours (that would be OK), but costs $0,780/hour
(or currently $0,1375/hour for spot-pricing → 100€/month if used 24/7)
