      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A memory-optimized x86_64 server featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and a high memory-to-core ratio for in-memory caching workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.ce4.2xlarge is an x86_64 memory-optimized instance featuring 8 dedicated vCPUs and 8 physical cores powered by an Intel Xeon 8369HB processor at 3.2 GHz. It is configured with 64.0 GB of RAM, providing a 1:8 vCPU-to-memory ratio, but includes no local storage or GPU resources. Network throughput is limited to a 3 Gbps baseline. Performance benchmarks show average results for general compute and single-threaded operations, such as a Geekbench multi-core score of 4693.0 and Redis throughput of 8.03 million operations per second. However, the instance exhibits weak performance in uncached large-block memory reads and database operations, which fall into the bottom 25%. Medium-model LLM inference is also poor. This server is best suited for memory-dense, moderate-compute workloads like in-memory caching and static web serving rather than memory-bandwidth-intensive database tasks.

      Workload Profiles

      0.531Score
      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.
