      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A compute-optimized virtual server featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processors, top-tier single-core performance, and hardware-accelerated cryptography for compute-bound workloads.

      Compute Optimized

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.c8ae.8xlarge is a compute-optimized virtual server featuring 32 dedicated AMD EPYC 9T34 physical cores operating at 3.4 GHz on the x86_64 architecture. It is configured with 64.0 GB of RAM, yielding a 2.0 GB per core ratio, and provides a baseline network bandwidth of 20 Gbps without bundled local storage or GPUs. Benchmarks show top-tier single-core CPU performance and strong cryptographic capabilities, supported by AVX-512 and hardware-accelerated encryption instructions. This resource profile makes the instance highly cost-efficient for compute-bound workloads that do not require high memory density. It is suited for web serving, multi-threaded decompression, and encryption-heavy applications.

      Workload Profiles

      1.49Score
      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.
