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

Just did a quick test. It booted up in about 11s vs around 19s for Xen. I did notice that it took a while for the status check to go green though. There was a warning message saying that it couldn't connect to the instance. I was able to SSH just fine though.
Ah, I'm having the same problem! Which C series did you pick?
Do .mental instances keep accruing compute charges when they are shutdown?
After the instance was ready, I logged into it using SSH and restarted it by typing ‘sudo reboot’ without doing anything else. The instance failed to come back from the restart. The error was : System status checks : System reachability check failed Instance status checks : Instance reachability check failed The error disappeared after 10 - 15 minutes after which I was able to access the instance. However, whenever I reboot the instance, the same error occurs again and I have to wait 10 - 15 minutes to access it.
Yes my use case relies on being able to restart the server quickly, within 2-3 minutes is bearable, but over 10 minutes makes bare metal instances not useful for my case. I don’t need to restart the server very often, but when I do, I can’t wait over 10 minutes. If there is any way to shorten the restart time please let me know. Otherwise, I will probably revert to the non-metal equivalent. As to your question, I don’t know, this is the first time I am trying a bare metal instance. I wanted to check if my application gains any performance advantage by using c5d.metal instead of c5d.24xlarge.
If you have a compute-intensive application — maybe scientific modelling, intensive machine learning, or multiplayer gaming — these instances are a good choice.
The c5 instance type has a high ratio of compute/CPU versus memory. If you have a compute-intensive application — maybe scientific modelling, intensive machine learning, or multiplayer gaming — these instances are a good choice.
