This is an EC2 test run on a pair of Large instances. Application performance can be directly mapped to hosting dollars, and for a start-up company in its infancy, hosting costs can be a pain point. We ran each test on EC2 and our i7 hardware. First up is plain JSON serialization on Amazon EC2 large instances.

A very interesting topic, especially for those of us involved in developing for start-ups. The basic conclusion was that it was a bit premature if you were talking about a serious, funded start-up. Especially when there are things like: Amazon S3 / EC2 / AWS outage this morning. Will it survive as long as you need?
