I am in Austin, TX and the front page took 5 seconds. I did not type anything or clicked anywhere.
The problem with EC2 and other super-managed hosting solutions (Joyent comes to mind) is inconsistency: I am sure they're moving VMs around, and occasionally they end up on overloaded servers.
- wmf 19y agoBut I am equally sure that EC2 does not oversell CPU/RAM resources and does not move VMs around. I don't think Xen even supports memory overcommit.
