I had this issue regularly occurring when playing videos in Firefox. I switched to Safari and that issue completely went away. Sometimes I'll check back on newer Firefox builds and unfortunately that issue persists.

> At 1/3 the Cost of AWS/GCP

For on-demand this is true, but spot GPU instances can have competitive pricing.

At this moment, a p3.2xlarge instance (1 Tesla v100) is 92 cents/hr on the AWS spot market in us-east-1. The p3.8xlarge (4 GPU) is $3.62/hr.

With enough time and resources, I wonder if we'll one day see a Rust game engine that can outperform these projects.
