I've realised that I don't have a good sense of how much a website costs. Presumably it has gone down significantly over time? If you need bespoke customisations there's labour costs, but a basic VPS can do a lot. CPUs and data transfer are both cheap.

I would have thought that invoking a C compiler would be a solved problem. Looking at Rust's cc crate there's a remarkable long tail of corner cases to fix. Exotic CPUs, microarchitectures, compiler differences, operating system differences, etc.

GNU Make defaults to a single worker, and newer build tools (e.g. ninja) default to the number of physical CPUs. I wish there was an option for 'leave me a little bit of my machine to do stuff'.
