I don't know what platform vast.ai uses but what I have noticed is cpu compute is pretty slow in those. Specifically the tokenization stage was unusually slow for no apparent reason. Had to give that up and use Google cloud for my research project

Sometimes vast.ai is running GPUs on Fly.io that people with YC credits have spun up and added to their marketplace. Those would have been fast though.

They run on literally anything someone installs their agent on.
