Do you have benchmarks on that? Not my experience for network speeds and CPU of individual machines but it's been 6 months since I checked.

Google Network and SSDs offer an order of magnitude more performance / price. Disks and Storage are about 2 times fast. Booting is 5 times fast.

Not just the performance, all Google Cloud services are fully managed (Think of S3 and Lambda on AWS). No servers! On AWS, only a couple of services are fully managed. Rest of them are a thin layer on top of EC2. If AWS is DevOps, Google Cloud is NoOps.

Some of my benchmarks for networking and storage (block and object) are in the middle of this deck:
