By default the service max out at 512 MB of RAM (yes, the service was invented in a different decade, way before AWS was cool). So if I want anything more than that, I'm better off running my own server.
Also ironically, I can't reach any of the newly NAT'd networks from my XVM instance. I bet the XVM maintainers haven't been warned about the NAT.
Did not know that. Honestly MIT's IT department should of given stakeholders more notice about this. I've honestly never had the chance to work on a public facing network (My alma mater, GMU, has a mostly natted network).
