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.

I am running a network-intensive task that sends several thousand pings/traceroute packets per second to external IP addresses. I've noticed that the network throughput is high soon after creating the instance, but drops off exponentially after the ping process has been running for more than an hour or so. I've tried this on a variety of instance sizes. Even on a c6.2xlarge (whose stated baseline network bandwidth is 2.5 Gbps), it drops down to around 200 packets a minute. Any ideas why this might be happening? Is there any way I can reserve more bandwidth for my instance?

The other difference is memory, your t2.micro instance has 1GB memory whereas the c6g.medium has 2GB of memory allocated, which also increases the price. Then there is the CPU architecture which is ARM, which won't be able to run x86 compiled applications natively and some applications will need to be recompiled specifically to run successfully.

Overall we are happy with performance, compared to old stack we are at around 10% of the cost and I think our savings was more than 2x compared to x86 after locking in some rates. R6gd.metal (16x) vs R5d.metal (24x)

For those of you encoding on c5 instances today, Graviton2 based C6g instances provide a very compelling 36% price/performance benefit.

If you have a compute-intensive application — maybe scientific modelling, intensive machine learning, or multiplayer gaming — these instances are a good choice.

Ah, I'm having the same problem! Which C series did you pick?
