Yeah I love this about EC2. I read an article this week that Rackspace hosting can take around 1.5 times more load than their EC2 counterpart. It is all a cost saving exercise though and Rackspace to me has always = massive costs. I'll speak to the guy who responded earlier though to see what they can do. I do love all this cloud stuff though. I personally setup all my dedicated servers last and I know what involved, its a pain in the ass. If I could minimise that then that would be great.
