How often do you boot up instances? Do you measure detailed metrics for the time from the RunInstances call to the earliest possible timestamp you can easily get from the user code, to quantify the amount of time spent in AWS before any instance code gets control?
If so, I'd love to see your measured distribution of boot times. Because I've observed results similar to your observations on EBS, with some long-tail outliers.

Thanks for the analysis and article!
