Attempting to calculate worst-case long-term hosting cost increase as a multiple of the 2018 total, I ran into an issue that does not appear to be solvable with the canonical advice to "Benchmark your code on hardware similar to what you'll be using in production".
If my worst-case definition assumes the ineffectiveness of current "spectre" mitigations, not much currently available hardware works the way CPUs will have to work, then. Extrapolating from execution times on old ARM or ancient Intel Atoms did not yield consistent or expected results (got >30-fold increases, suspecting interference from memory bandwidth/caches).
What else can I measure to help me estimate how much more hardware-hungry my workload will be in case we have to abandon speculative execution altogether?
