   Timed out at 2 hours, probably needs some kind of permission to use the credits?

   Funnily, increasing the cpu doesn’t do much, because with greedy: true you practically already get 16-20 cpus. It could make more sense to keep the cpu the same and only increase the time.

   The most CPU is consumed by one or two tasks that run for the longest time. So to be more cost-efficient, decreasing the cpu would be better. But here it is not possible, because of the memory requirements: each 4 GB of memory requires at least 1 CPU.

   0    cpu: 3
   1    memory: 12G
   

   looking at the chart, this may even be reduced, but i am not sure if 3 is an acceptable number

   I’d be surprised if this was enough

    lgtm. Maybe just merge to see if it will use credits then?

    Max cost should be 3*0.48*5$=7.2$ ?

    Ok. We’ll merge this now, and see what happens in the CI run.
