Thanks, I use a "small" EC2 instance for my personal stuff (about $35 a month), with the Cloudflare free version, but I honestly don't know and what would happen if something went viral or a DOS. Would the bill be double? Triple? Would the site simply crash. What does Cloudflare do? I honestly have no idea.
Site would just not run if you're using EC2 directly and the machine can't handle it. Not sure what cloudflare does, i don't use it, just AWS directly :)
