Bug Description
Filed against vm-buidler but I'm not sure that's where it belongs.
Current UEC images are very large (10Gb+ filesystems) which make them:
- difficult to use or test in UEC
- oversized for lots of typical cloud usages
- needing m1.xlarge by default in UEC
I think we should make sure they can run into a default UEC c1.medium (1CPU, 256Mb ram, 5Gb disk).

Just some related information, Matt Zimmerman sent this attached script to
ubuntu-devel to size down the images. This doesn't address the
"out-of-the-box" readiness, but it does give some option.
