I've had a Linode for 3 years and love it, too. I spend about $240/year for a node with 512 MB of memory. But EC2 is more economical, providing 3x the memory

I've had a Linode for 3 years and love it, too. I spend about $240/year for a node with 512 MB of memory. But EC2 is more economical, providing 3x the memory for nearly the same price, plus much more CPU power and great disk IO performance.
- jasondavies 16y agoI'm not sure EC2 is more economical in terms of CPU power, as I think Linode gives you access to up to 4 Xeon cores depending on load (which is generally quite low) so you probably get more raw performance from a Linode instance despite having less memory.
