The 192 core Google Cloud server is likely running at a fairly low frequency for power efficiency. So 5 days on it might be comparable to 1 or 2 months on a 16 core Ryzen 5950X that you can rent at hetzner.com/sb for around $100 a month. You can alternatively get an Epyc 7502P there (32 cores) for around the same price. I don't know how the speed would compare.
