Comment 25 for bug 574910

Thanks for the update. The performance of the EC2 10.04 images is noticeably slower than the 8.04 LTS ones we were running, so I'm pretty sure it's not just a case of the load being incorrectly reported, hence why I've been actively monitoring this issue.

Given what you've said it seems unlikely that it will be resolved with an official stable patch any time soon, so, although I am grateful for your honesty, I'm going to run up some other distributions which support EC2 and have the relevant versions of the packages we need so we can compare performance and possibly switch.
