We can only run one job at a time currently though because we don't have enough quota in the region where the cluster is deployed, but that should be enough for testing. @lnihlen is working on getting additional quota. I think it would probably make more sense to use the Google hosted runners given it doesn't require any budget from the foundation, and lets us consolidate on a single system.

OK, do you think I should update this PR to use those runners instead or wait a few weeks?

Depot runners are up-to 64 CPUs.  The number of CPUs is part of the runs-on label so you can choose the right size machine that fits the job.
