Still I was developing Lapdev on a AMD Desktop CPU machine hosted in Hetzner, because I know it's more performant and less expensive than a public cloud. And it strikes to me that all existing cloud dev env providers like Codespaces and Gitpod all use the cloud, i.e. server CPU for their offering. So I quickly did some performance tests on Codespaces and Gitpod, and comparing them to my AMD box. Unsurprisingly, my AMD box can deliver 2x the performance, given the same CPU cores.
So it's clear to me that I should work on a cloud dev env with AMD high end gaming CPUs, as there's no such offering on the market. If you've got remote development in your workflow, check us out on https://lap.dev/ and see if it can boost the performance for you.
