Very good!

Now, what kind of tests can you do next?

Can you exercise the cluster with an interesting workflow?

How large of a cluster can you assemble in a Nimbus workspace ?
Can you aggregate VM's from a few different physical clusters into one 
Nimbus workspace?

What's the largest cluster you can assemble with Nimbus?

Can we try putting Matlab on a Nimbus VM and then running it at an 
interesting scale?

Do we have any free allocations of EC2 to enable testing of this at Amazon?
