      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated 16-vCPU compute-optimized virtual server designed for parallelized workloads, multi-threaded processing, and network-dependent applications.

      Compute Optimized

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.c6.4xlarge is an x86_64 compute-optimized instance featuring 16 dedicated vCPUs and 32.0 GB of RAM, powered by an Intel Xeon 8269CY processor running at 2.5 GHz. Operating on the KVM hypervisor, this instance provides a 1:2 vCPU-to-RAM ratio with no local storage or GPU resources, and a baseline network bandwidth of 5 Gbps. Benchmark data shows average multi-core CPU and memory bandwidth performance, contrasted by weaker single-core execution. The instance is well-suited for parallelized workloads, including static web serving, multi-threaded data processing, and database operations, where dedicated CPU allocation is required but local storage is not a necessity.

      Workload Profiles

      0.771Score
      Precomputed compound score for Cache Intensive workloads. A weighted average (geometric mean) of benchmark scores compared to their medians: score = ∏ (x_i / m_i)^(w_i / Σw). The score of 1.0 represents a synthetic baseline server with the median performance of each component benchmark; 0.5 means roughly half the performance; and 2.0 means twice the performance of that reference profile. Component weights: 50% Redis RPS (pipeline=1, SET), 20% Redis RPS (pipeline=16, SET), 10% PassMark Memory Mark (composite), 10% Memory bandwidth (read, 16 MB ~ L3), 10% PassMark single-thread CPU. Rationale for component selection: In-memory key-value store workload, mixing direct Redis performance metrics with memory speed and latency benchmarks, and single-core CPU performance profiles.
