This seems too much of a coincidence.

We released a dropbox-like product to sync and the back-end is on EBS. Yesterday we saw two times when a device got filled to 7GB and as it got closer it became slower and slower and slower.

We (wrongly?) assumed reliability and (decent) performance from AWS.
