The exact same _measurements.txt_ file is used for evaluating all contenders.
If you'd like to spin up your own box for testing on Hetzner Cloud, you may find these [set-up scripts](https://github.com/gunnarmorling/cloud-boxes/) (based on Terraform and Ansible) useful.
It has been reported that instances of the CCX33 machine class can significantly vary in terms of performance,
so results are only comparable when obtained from one and the same instance.
Note this will incur cost you are responsible for, I am not going to pay your cloud bill :)

_Q: Which operating system is used for evaluation?_\
A: Fedora 39.
_Q: My solution runs on 2 sec on my machine. Am I the fastest 1BRC-er in the world?_\
A: Probably not :) 1BRC results are reported in wallclock time, thus results of different implementations are only comparable when obtained on the same machine. If for instance an implementation is faster on a 32 core workstation than on the 8 core evaluation instance, this doesn't allow for any conclusions. When sharing 1BRC results, you should also always share the result of running the baseline implementation on the same hardware.
