Bom dia Brazil, Hola South America!

The first GCLoad AMI is now available in the new Sao Paulo AWS Region (sa-east-1). To celebrate the establishment of this new region we've made available our 500VU AMI (ami-a231eebf) for free until the 3rd of January 2012! Make your website sweat, happy testing!

Smallprint:

"Free" means that no additional charges (other than the usual EC2 AWS charges) apply. You still have to pay for the EC2 instance + traffic you'll generate while performing your loadtest.
