One of the most impressive parts of the post is this:

> We "flipped the switch" and enabled this performance boost for all existing EFS General Purpose mode file systems over the course of the last few weeks

Surely it wasn't as simple as flipping "[x] Make filesystem slower than it could be" to unchecked.

It would be cool to read up on how they did this. I'm guessing lots of folks are writing a lot of data to the existing old set up, does anyone have any guesses on how they hot swapped that to the new set up with no downtime or data inconsistencies?
