Starting with CPU cores, I have two on my VPS 9 Atlanta which more or less serves my purpose but I honestly prefer 4 for faster compilation. For example, I've to wait an hour and a half for the application to compile even while compiling a debug build.
Coming to memory, this is something needed. cmake needs about 2Gb of memory per thread of compilation so yeah the 8 GB RAM of VPS 9 Atlanta definitely is appropriate. However, when compiling a static build cmake hogs RAM so it needs more than 8GB with all other applications running on the VPS hence I have a 8GB swap too.
About storage, 100 GB on VPS 9 Atlanta is more than enough for me, about 50 GB is actually required and ~80GB when temp files are being created and I'm compiling, signing binaries and all that. I prefer SSD because some of my applications have a lot of frequent disk usage hence it's good if the I/O is large.
Network is another important factor. I'd prefer 1 Gbps DL and 500 MbPS Up. I get ~800 Mbps DL and 400 Mbps Up, on VPS 9 Atlanta so that's near about perfect. https://www.speedtest.net/result/c/b2a09...d44fe11598
