-\caption{Performance data for different configurations of worker placements. The master is always on a desktop, with the choice of workers placed on either Clouds or on the TeraGrid (QueenBee). The configurations can be classified as of three types -- all workers on EC2, all workers on the TeraGrid and workers divied between the TeraGrid and EC2. Every worker is assigned to a unique  VM. It is interesting to note the significant spawning times, and its dependence on the number of VM. Spawning time is without instantiation.}

 very different beast -- Google's AppEngine, i.e. \sagamapreduce that

+at least the clouds), it cost us upwards of \$150 to perform
