Does anyone have any experience using the Google Compute Engine (or Amazon Web Services, or any other IAAS for that matter) to do RNA-Seq analysis with TopHat? The computers I have available are not at all suited to the task, and so I'd be interested to hear from anyone who has used one of these services.

I used Amazon Web Services EC2 to analyze some RNA-Seq data with Bowtie, Tophat and Cufflinks a few years ago.
I used a Ubuntu Linux ami, with 16 Gigabytes of ram, which doesn't seem like a lot now. I had files with 90 million 1X50 reads. I had started off with either a
4 Gb or 8 Gb machine, but got segmentation faults.
I just used a basic Linux ami, so I had to install all the bioinformatics software i wanted to use, like the Bowtie, Tophat, etc.
