Can you cite a source please?

A little more than an anonymous one-liner in a forum would really help my confidence...

Phoronix' benchmarking test suite has been able to detect underlying hardware: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=amazo...

No source aside from personal experience working with them, sorry. They avoid publicizing anything about the hardware/infrastructure if possible, partly so that they can change it without customer awareness and partly because they have secret sauce in places (no, ECC isn't secret sauce).

Okay, I guess I'll take that as another datapoint, although honestly (no offense) I won't be basing decisions on it. ;)
