About - Plan Cruncher
What Plan Cruncher does Plan Cruncher creates a standard one-page summary of a business plan for a start-up company that is looking for external investment. You do this by choosing icons that represent some of the standard answers that a business plan must provide. These icons fulfil the same purpose as the icons for the Creative Commons licenses - they serve as abbreviations for fairly straightforward ideas such as ‘advertising revenue model’, which are backed up by a long detailed description (in your actual business plan).
Blog: What is an ECU? CPU Benchmarking in the Cloud
NOTE: This post has been updated after it's original writing. The original CPU performance metrics did not accurately depict performance on multi-core servers. The updated post utilizes an improved method of calculating CPU performance that applies more weight to multi-core aware benchmarks (see benchmarks description below for more info). Over the past couple of months we've spent some time benchmarking about 150 different cloud server configurations with 20 different vendors. This included all 8 AWS EC2 instances types (m1.small - m2.4xlarge) in all 4 regions (32 servers total for EC2). The benchmark suite we ran includes about 100 different benchmarks from synthetic benchmarks measuring raw CPU performance such as Unixbench and Geekbench to higher level application benchmarks such as mysql-bench, pgbench, tpcc-mysql and blog bench.
