More benchmarking of EC2 instances

I have been running a series using the sysbench fileio option to further benchmark
all three types of EC2 instances on my database blog.

Sysbench fileio vs EC2 Part 1
Sysbench fileio vs Large EC2 Part 2
Sysbench fileio vs EC2 Part 3
seeker io benchmark vs EC2

Basically it looks like / mounted filesystem (/dev/sda) has much better raw io performance than the larger /mnt (/dev/sdb) filesystem.

I am completing the Kettle Slaves work and should have a post up soon.
