It's nice but, for the service, per-node pricing is frustrating. Maybe our workload is unusual, but I'm running something at a reasonably small scale, with about 30 nodes.

The cluster autoscaler has been so good that we've optimised for more, smaller nodes, on spot instance pricing. At $79/node, that's about 4x the cost of the actual instance itself...

And yet the actual cost of the services provided, don't _really_ seem to scale with number of nodes? But then, I can't think of another metric to tie it to easily
