I haven't stress-tested any EC2 systems recently, but when I did late last 
summer/fall, they worked fine for me. I had to do some tuning of the 
nmbclusters to handle the data rates I was using, but I think that would be 
expected even if running on bare metal.

I suspect that the folks on x...@freebsd.org could comment on this.
FreeBSD on EC2 is working fine as far as I know, however I don't
personally use it at this time.

FreeBSD at Amazon EC2 status

2012-01-03 Thread Alexandre Biancalana
Hi lists,

 What´s is the current state of FreeBSD running on Amazon EC2 ? Is
this stable ? Looking at Colin's status page
(http://www.daemonology.net/freebsd-on-ec2/) looks like there´s no
active development on that.

 Does someone running production workload with FreeBSD on EC2 ?

 I'm interested in running network (dns and http with accept filter)
and memory/buffer cache intensive applications on m1.small, m1.large
and m2.xlarge instances.

 Any thoughts ?

received this)

Best Regards and Happy New Year !
