Hey,

I was wondering if there are any recommendations for setting the processors config for aws ec2 instance type?  
I'm utilizing mostly r4 and some i3 instance types and I suspect the default processors config is over-provisioned for ec2 instances.  
Any thoughts / experience with this config?

Thanks!
