      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A compute-optimized x86_64 instance featuring thirty-two dedicated vCPUs and sixty-four gigabytes of RAM for parallelized, multi-threaded workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.c6e.8xlarge is a compute-optimized instance featuring 32 dedicated vCPUs and 64.0 GB of RAM, running on an Intel Xeon 8269CY processor at 2.5 GHz. Built on the KVM hypervisor, this x86_64 server provides a 1:2 vCPU-to-RAM ratio with no bundled local storage or GPU accelerators, and delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 10 Gbps. Performance benchmarks place the instance in the average tier for multi-core operations, including Geekbench multi-core and PassMark CPU tests, though single-core performance is weaker, falling in the bottom 25% for stress-ng single-core and gzip compression. This resource profile offers a balanced cost-to-compute ratio for parallel workloads. It is best suited for multi-threaded applications, software compilation, web serving, and database operations that do not require high single-core performance or local NVMe storage.

      Workload Profiles

      1.3Score
      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.
