CPU Encryption Speed Benchmarks

Cloud Mercato tested CPU performance using a range of encryption speed tests:

Encryption Algorithm Speed (1024 Block Size, 3 threads)
AES-128 CBC N/A
AES-256 CBC N/A
MD5 N/A
SHA256 N/A
SHA512 N/A
I/O Performance

Cloud Mercato's tested the I/O performance of this instance using a 100GB General Purpose SSD. Below are the results:

Read Write
Max N/A N/A
Average N/A N/A
Deviation N/A N/A
Min N/A N/A

I/O rate testing is conducted with local and block storages attached to the instance. Cloud Mercato uses the well-known open-source tool FIO. To express IOPS the following parametersare used: 4K block, random access, no filesystem (except for write access with root volume and avoidance of cache and buffer.

The similar Compute Optimized c4.large has half the memory (3.75GB), and also costs $0.10 / hr. According to the docs, M4 runs at 2.4GHz and C4 at 2.9GHz, so the C4 is a 21% faster. They have similar Intel processors and features. If your job is CPU intensive then the C4 will probably be approximately 20% faster.

Using a single EC2 which can process 30GB at a time is ideally a waste of resource as this will require a very high configuration machine to process the file in-memory.

1) You will be chargeable however your disconnecting from the server. Because you're just disconnecting from the server but not stopping or terminating the server.

1. If you disconnect ssh, you will still be charged 2. Unless you terminate the vm, the data will remain in the vm 3. If your laptop goes to sleep mode, vm still will be on.

There are two charges associated with your Amazon EC2 instance: * An hourly charge based on the Instance Type * A charge for the Amazon EBS disk volumes

I am trying to use AWS. I have a $20 gift card, and I am currently running c4.8xlarge 36 132 60 EBS Only $1.993 per Hour. On the AWS webpage, it says c4.8xlarge, status: running. I am currently connecting to it through mac terminal (ssh).

We just finished running several Wowza Edge instances on C4.8xl instances and had no issues at 6+Gbps per instance.

EC2 instances are priced according to instance type, regardless of the number of CPUs enabled. Disabling vCPUs does not change the cost of the instance type.

Do .mental instances keep accruing compute charges when they are shutdown?
