It not just about the provider.  I would need to see the bandwidth 
charts on the current Jenkins but I assume Just about any provider can 
handle it bandwidth needs.  But the server Jenkins Master needs to run 
on.  EC2 isn't cutting it.  My testing box is a basic Sata drive and it 
is running much faster but there is no user load on the box.  We really 
need a box with raid 10 drives in it to handle the high IO needs.
