Regarding the machine's sizes - I did it on purpose, to showcase that even with this limited resources, you can still achieve way better performance than most systems will ever need.
I know that you can have significantly bigger machines; network-mounted DB storage on the other hand is not slow - it's designed specifically for these kind of use cases
Local NVMe storage is incredibly fast though for databases. Probably not a big factor in your test here, but certainly a relevant factor if you was to push the DB more.
