Excellent. I don't mean to put you on the spot. :) But I did figure this was an opportunity to ping Rackspace again in case you might be interested in running our test suite on your virtual servers.

The i7 hardware we test on is just our workstations, which are possibly similar to your Performance 1 8GB, but you would probably be able to map it more accurately. Specifically, they are Sandy Bridge i7-2600Ks with 8GB of memory.
