Same. I love RDS. It's amazingly convenient and I use it when I can justify it. It's also really expensive and I can - and have - easily build postgres setups w/replication across multiple data centers in several countries and still come out cheaper (including time spent) than anything remotely similar capacity in RDS. It's not hard, but it's more work than me, and so I'm happy to let AWS do it when I work somewhere where we can afford it. Cloud has a role many places, but not in setups that are cost sensitive at scale.
