You could consider using large instances with per hour pricing on AWS
https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/ for more power, alternate to purchasing
hardware.
To speed up computation, run tasks in parallel and/or on multiple
instances, for varied lengths.
E.g.
- Same instance - Thread 1 for 6-8 length, Thread 2 for 8-10 length and
so on.
- Multiple instance - Instance 1 for 6-8 length, Instance 2 for 8-10
length and so on.
