I checked the WarpBuild website and got excited because the header in the menu says you have macOS Intel runners, but then you click through and it doesn't seem to be so?

Right now at my company our biggest complaint are macOS Intel runners from GitHub which somehow take 15+ minutes to provision and are the slowest of the bunch.

I can assure you WarpBuild has Mac runners that work very well. When I first switched GH only offered 1 Mac runner and it was horribly slow. Literally cut my build times in half by changing 1 line in my workflow file to use the WB runner.

Nowadays GH has more sizes by WB continues to beat them in price and performance.

It’s highway robbery what GH charges for the crap they provide. I can highly recommend WarpBuild for Mac (and Linux) runners.

I was talking specifically of macOS Intel runners. The sibling comment from the founder confirmed they don't have them.

We only have macos arm64 (M-series) runners. Can you point me to the intel reference so I can fix it?

Hover the top nav. Under "CI Runners" it's says:

macOS Runners Apple Silicon and Intel support
