We are going to try the biggest machines at the moment, n2d-standard-224 224 cores https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/machine-types#n2d_machine_types_beta

According to https://github.com/w3f/polkadot-lab/wiki/GCP-limits we have 384 cores free on europe-west6, so we will try the creation there.

I'm going to write a terraform module to create a gcp-based k8s managed cluster with a node pool composed of 1 n2d-standard-224 machine, all guided by terratest.

Still in touch with GCP for being able to create n2d machines

Module created here https://registry.terraform.io/modules/w3f/polkadot-lab/google/0.1.0

After the meeting with GCP they are happy to increase our N2D quota, waiting for the green light to test.
