The New Linode Cloud: SSDs, Double RAM and much more

I think these new nodes are still pretty lightly used, give it a few months and then do a comparison. Benchmarking VPS/cloud instances can be tricky since you might be on a quite node or a heavily utilized node. You really need to provision many machines and run the checks at random times over a period and then average the scores out.

I upgraded some of my VMs and they all failed to boot on their own and I had to manually boot each one after the migration.

Here's my DO results (AMS1). This server was busy and we're actively using it for 4+ months
