Hey - I was looking forward for some comparison stats of ARM vs Intel - but it seems the article is missing a bit of info?

> Once all 300K users had spawned, we observed the number of EC2 instances the cluster had scaled to: for Graviton2 and for the baseline.

Were the metrics accidentally omitted?

Not accidentally omitted; we didn't share them because they're not that meaningful without full context of how Ably works internally. The data was useful to the Ably team as they made a decision about whether Graviton would be suitable. It may be possible to share the information anyway if you're interested. I'll find out...
