Bandwidth/CPU is fairly low normally, but goes to absurd levels for things like this. EC2 is nice, since we have a machine image that we can just bring online quickly, but it's somewhat pricey once you have several going at once. At the peak (this morning, when I guess everyone came back into the office to look at it), we were up to 10 EC2 web servers. Yikes!
