If you need any additional proof that EC2 instances are abysmally slow (at all cost tiers) just look at http://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r4 and compare m1.large versus dedicated hardware.

I don't see how that proves anything. They're using an old first generation instance type and benchmarking it alongside a much more powerful i7 processor. If you want a faster instance get a second generation instance or a larger one.
