Hi,
Extremely cool.
Would you be willing to share your benchmark? If so, I could try
running it on a linode, and maybe others on the list could try their
favorite cloud/colo spaces.
I've not seen a cloud/colo benchmark application (but I haven't looked,
either.)
A complete one would do some network throughput, latency, and disk
I/O tests as well as compute tasks.
As more folks need to move things to clouds & colos, a benchmark
like this could be very useful.
