This sounds great.

How suitable do you think this is for CPU-intensive work? I'm interested in having servers for scientific-computational work, which would be rather CPU-heavy. It would be great to offload some of this to a nearby browser for bits and pieces that desire low-latency.

I would think it would be better to have a bunch of servers in a single datacenter if low-latency between them is important. Fly.io sounds great for the case where you're willing to sacrifice low-latency between your own servers to get them to have low-latency with your users.

We have some customers doing CPU heavy tasks like image and video processing, but we're not specifically optimizing for that right now. If there's demand we might offer better processors or GPUs for those workloads, or maybe even spot pricing on idle nodes, but that's far off.
