Zwift on Amazon EC2 NVIDIA Gaming Windows Server 2019 AMI

How well does the Zwift game client run on Amazon’s EC2 cloud computing service? With virtual private networking and the Zwift mobile companion app for pairing sensors, it is theoretically possible to run the game remotely & stream a high quality video rendering of the scene in real-time to a low end computing device or set-top box. I was curious to know how a high end $2,750 NVIDIA T4 GPU, and the new NVIDIA Gaming AMI would perform, so I spun up an instance and ran the client in ‘just watch’ mode for 10 minutes.
