What's the Insert/Update Speed like on an AWS RDS Small?

Are there any benchmarks for the insert/update speed on an RDS small instance?

I'm looking for just ballpark开发者_JAVA百科 numbers.

Can it perform a few hundred inserts/updates per second?

Most of the information found within the RDS docs is extremely thorough. Should you require any specifics, I'm sure you could email Amazon and they'd be happy to provide you with the latest data on your geographic location.

Saying that, if all you want are some quick-and-dirty numbers, see: http://www.johngaltsystems.com/blog/amazon-web-serices-rds-benchmark-results/

You may gain better results running mysql bench on your own instance.
