      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated dual-vCPU compute instance designed for lightweight single-threaded workloads and basic web serving without local storage.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.c7.large is an x86_64 compute-optimized instance featuring 2 vCPUs and 4.0 GB of RAM, powered by a dedicated Intel Xeon 8369B processor at 2.7 GHz. Running on the KVM hypervisor, this instance does not include local storage or GPU accelerators, and offers a baseline network bandwidth of 2 Gbps. Benchmark data indicates average single-core performance, with a stress-ng single-core score of 1874.59, but lower multi-core and memory bandwidth results. This resource profile makes the ecs.c7.large qualitatively cost-efficient for lightweight, single-threaded applications, basic web serving, and small utility workloads that benefit from dedicated CPU execution without requiring large memory footprints.

      Workload Profiles

      0.18Score
      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.
