Description

There's this page which is useful: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonVPC/latest/UserGuide/VPC_Appendix_Limits.html

Then at reinvent just today there was an announcement that cross-region peering is now available

I was also in a session by Matt Lehwess where he talked about something in the peering setup having a 1,5Gbps limit, I believe it was the IGW or VFW, not sure, sorry :)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Search AWS documentation for VPC limits and cross region VPC peering details, and verify the 1.5Gbps limit mentioned (likely IGW or Virtual Private Gateway). Update the guide with accurate information and links.
