Predictive analysis for migration window when converting back from ST1 to GP volumes in AWS.

When executing Turbo scaling actions to move volumes for savings after peak production hours (ex, after 5pm), the time it takes AWS to complete the migration has little impact.  However, when the reverse is true for move actions of volumes for performance, the timing is critical.  The time it takes for AWS to complete a cluster of volume moves could impact application performance, or even availability, until the moves complete if not done by start of peak production hours (ex. 8am).  Accordingly, it would be helpful if Turbo could perform a predictive analysis of the time needed for volume move actions based on factors such as individual volume sizes and number of volumes to be migrated from one EBS type to another.  This analysis would help inform the move window such that volume migrations would be completed prior to start of production hours.
