I started a conversation over on infrastructure@. The short version is that we have no 'standard' way to support this right now but they're willing to discuss it. One option is to use EC2, but they need more information on what's needed in terms of detailed ideas of CPU cores, CPU time, disk space, disk i/O usage etc. Obviously, they can't just let us loose on EC2 without knowing what the bill would look like in the end. Can someone either give an idea of those details (?maybe in terms of the EC2 instance types? and amount of time needed)? Or, you could join the conversation on infrastructure@... Thanks, --tim
