      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated dual-vCPU compute instance with a 1:2 memory ratio, designed for lightweight processing and entry-level utility workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.c6e.large is a compute-optimized virtual machine instance featuring 2 dedicated vCPUs and 4.0 GB of RAM. Powered by an Intel Xeon 8269CY processor running at 2.5 GHz on the x86_64 architecture, it includes 35 MB of L3 cache and supports AVX-512 instructions. The instance does not bundle local storage, relying instead on network-attached storage, and provides a baseline network bandwidth of 1 Gbps. Benchmark results indicate modest performance, with a Geekbench single-core score of 1156.0 and a multi-core score of 1379.0, alongside uncached memory read speeds of 12.97 GB/sec. Given its dedicated CPU allocation and 1:2 vCPU-to-RAM ratio, this instance is qualitatively cost-effective for lightweight, compute-bound workloads such as basic web serving, utility scripting, and entry-level database operations that do not require high memory capacity or local storage.

      Workload Profiles

      0.15Score
      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.
