Our goal is to for the majority of virtualized EC2 instances to be indistinguishable from bare metal (if not better). In most CPU and memory intensive benchmarks there is very little difference between an virtualized EC2 instance and bare metal, especially for smaller numbers of cores and memory sizes.
