erichammondaxolx: There have been recent issues: http://ec2status.notlong.com17:46
axolxerichammond: yes but those notes claim they have been fixed as of 1 hour ago.17:46

axolxerichammond: this: http://developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/thread.jspa?threadID=36409&tstart=0 is not loading either. oh my17:49
smoserwonder if anyone else has seen something similar to this20:50
smoseri started a c1.medium today rather than a c1.xlarge for a task that is highly bottlenecked on 'gunzip'20:51
smoseri had noticed that according to http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AWSEC2/latest/DeveloperGuide/index.html?instance-types.html20:51
smoserthe medium had 2x2.5 CPU Units and the xlarge had 8x2.5 CPU units20:52
smosersince gunzip is not threaded i figured medium would be the same20:52
smosernot at all20:52
smoserafter maybe 20 minutes, i decided to start a xlarge and see how they compared.20:52
smoserthe xlarge has made up the difference in gunzipped filesize in maybe 5 minutes.20:53
smoserwhat i'm getting at is that not all CPU Units are created equal :)20:53
smoserymmv20:53
sorenInteresting.20:56
smoserand note, that each system has 2 cpus at 100% utilization20:56
smoserso its not as if disk was bottlenecking the medium20:57
smoserneither shows any usage of swap20:57
pfibigerhey all, i'm rebundling an alestic ami using these instructions: http://alestic.com/2009/06/ec2-ami-bundle ...the original ami prints the ssh key fingerprint in the console, but my rebundled ami doesn't. i'm sure it's something simple i'm missing, does anyone know what step i'm missing?21:13
* pfibiger realized what it is :P21:27
erichammondpfibiger: You can fix this by chmod +x /etc/init.d/ec2-ssh-host-key-gen before bundling, but make sure to chmod -x before rebooting.21:28
erichammondAn upcoming release of the AMIs will default to regenerating ssh keys on rebundled AMIs since you are the fourth person to think it should work this way and nobody has defended my original choice.21:29
pfibigererichammond: yeah, i just realized that a minute or two ago. thanks for the amis and the rebundling instructions :)21:29
erichammondYou could also install the updated boot script which works the way you want: http://ec2ubuntu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/etc/init.d/ec2-ssh-host-key-gen21:31
erichammondsmoser: That CPU test does not match my expectations either.  Deserves further investigation for those of us who live in this environment.21:32
