Makes me wish I had time to set up a public image for an array of POV 
tracers. Maybe by the time 3.7 is out of beta and runs on Linux...


Instances

$0.10 - Small Instance (Default)

       1.7 GB of memory, 1 EC2 Compute Unit (1 virtual core with 1 EC2 
Compute Unit), 160 GB of instance storage, 32-bit platform

$0.40 - Large Instance

       7.5 GB of memory, 4 EC2 Compute Units (2 virtual cores with 2 EC2 
Compute Units each), 850 GB of instance storage, 64-bit platform

$0.80 - Extra Large Instance

       15 GB of memory, 8 EC2 Compute Units (4 virtual cores with 2 EC2 
Compute Units each), 1690 GB of instance storage, 64-bit platform

Pricing is per instance-hour consumed for each instance type. Partial 
instance-hours consumed are billed as full hours.

One EC2 Compute Unit provides the equivalent CPU capacity of a 1.0-1.2 
GHz 2007 Opteron or 2007 Xeon processor. This is also the equivalent to 
an early-2006 1.7 GHz Xeon processor referenced in our original 
documentation. See Measuring Compute Resources for a complete 
description of an EC2 Compute Unit.

     Remember the good old days, when we
     used to complain about cryptography
     being export-restricted?
