That was one of the things that caught my eye.
Something that "we" have never done other than simple cooperation.
Another thing, Ghidra can evaluate code paths with binary comparisons.
Also, Ghidra can be scripted.
My thoughts are leading towards ::
Once a single firmware version is done in its entirety, only Ghidra scripted "next" versions have to be evaluated by a person.
Anything the "same" would only be handled by the script reporting.
Now that might be either impractical or not possible, but it is the direction of my thoughts.
Another thought to check into ::
Maybe it is possible to host the Ghidra server on one of Amazon's free, supercomputer clouds.

Or maybe one of the smaller, several million core, machines:

(Amazon has stopped listing their supercomputers on that (voluntary) list.)
PS: 500 of the top 500 machines run Linux.
