Is it possible to use AWS RDS? If so, how would that affect performance? (An estimate and/or explanation of the MySQL optimizations that are affected would be appreciated.)
Thanks!

re: RDS?
Yes, it's possible to use Amazon RDS. The basic idea is to turn off mysql on the server (using the /etc/pantheon/server_tuneables file) and then pointing drupal to the RDS.
However, we haven't done any testing of RDS nor is any scheduled ATM. I'm sure there are folks in the amazon-web-services-s3-ec2 group that have experience and maybe even benchmarks.
