Almost 500€ a month is complete overkill for what we do and what we actually need.
500€ per month does indeed sound like too much. I can see why we'd maybe want a box with slightly more memory or with SSDs, but then again I don't know if building on HDDs really slows things down all that much compared to our current tempfs builds. Maybe someone is interested in building some 5-10minute package to get us some numbers to compare? If HDDs are really much slower, I can see why we might want a new machine with SSDs, but I don't see us needing as big of a machine as what you suggested. Florian
