Very good question and it is one that we're working on right now!
As you may know, Amazon has recently revised a lot of the interfaces to the EC2 complex, so our tentative answer may change if you ask again in a couple of weeks.
Right now, we are pretty much certain of 200:1 amplification using a very large Amazon image. But we believe -- but don't yet have proof -- that we can find the OS switch settings (heap size, stack size, virtual memory size, etc.) that will let us do 500:1.
Stay tuned on this one...we'll make users aware of any breakthroughs on this front.
