Dear AWS please eliminate startup time

Why do machines in this day and age still require more than 1 second to start? Why can't we have instant machine start? Especially when restarting an instance. Please fix this. Now. Today. Someone please.

You should really do some research into why your startup times are so long instead of blaming your service provider.

was just playing with some new machines.. i hit restart on the web console and the machine was accessible by the time i had finished typing the ssh command in my terminal.
