The ability to re-size GCP VMs totally blew me away when I first discovered it. Just power off the machine, drag the RAM slider way up and turn it back on. SOOO much easier than re-creating the VM on AWS.
I also way prefer to just crank up the RAM on a single instance and use Pandas/Dask instead of dealing with distributed computing headaches :)
