The data may be the same but is the contention? In other words, if you have 100 clients accessing and writing in AWS but only 1 on the laptop it isn't realistic and the schema may still be at issue. How large is the dataset too? Honestly, I know people like to complain about Mongo a lot of times, but frankly I have had really large and small datasets use it and when setup properly with a well designed schema it never was the bottle neck in terms of performance etc. But on a couple of occasions we chose to move away from Mongo because the trade off in schema and machine config to make it work was more of a problem for us.
