Is there any other documentation that compares performance between different generations (c5/c6/c7) and processor types (c6i vs c6g, for example)? The on-demand pricing per hour for a c6i.large (or a c5.large) instance is 25% more than for a c6g.large, which is not insignificant. And why does documentation for the AWS FGT 7.0 recommend c6i or c6g, whereas 7.2 and 7.4 recommend only c5?

I am just now trying to change the instance type and it's only letting me use the c6i platform - I was HOPING I could go to the c7g platform actually as the performance vs cost is stellar.
