Re:Ask HN: how many EC2 instances do you run? by JasonCarter80 on Tuesday February 14, 2012 @10:15PM (#3592833)
Small bit of work here, but I use up to 11, I have one instance as my command and control that uses a messaging queue to send work to the others that are dynamically added as needed up to the self limit of 10 workers.
