For the record, I hate the JBT micro instance, but my experience may be irrelevant. I played with a micro instance once, probably attempting a backtest or optimization run for fun.
>From memory, if for some reason your instance starts drawing a bunch of CPU load, it will soon get throttled down to a very very low speed. Maybe JBT doesn't consume enough resources for this to happen, but I want the security of knowing that my CPU resources are not subject to violent throttling at the virtual machine's whim.
