If you are volunteering to take over the builds, that would be great. I don’t know how much time you have to fiddle with this. I may just renew my Azure with the cheapest option and see if it will work with 1 core and we don’t lose the setup. Then you’ll have an idea of what we might cost if we switch to AWS. I haven’t talked to Azure folks directly, but it looked like the step up to the next level was significant in cost.
Moving some jobs to other servers would also help ensure 1 core works. The most time consuming build, IIRC, is the main Flex SDK release packaging build.
