      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated twelve-core virtual server offering balanced compute and memory resources for stable web serving and database workloads.

      General Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.cm4.3xlarge is a general-purpose virtual machine featuring 12 dedicated Intel Xeon 8369HB vCPUs running at 3.2 GHz on the x86_64 architecture. It is equipped with 48.0 GB of RAM, providing a balanced 4.0 GB per core, but lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Operating on the KVM hypervisor, the instance delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 4 Gbps. Benchmark evaluations show average performance across standard compute tasks, with a Passmark CPU score of 13441.38 and a Redis SET throughput of 11.64 million operations per second. However, memory-intensive operations show some limitations, as reflected in a weak Passmark memory score. This instance is best suited for stable, dedicated workloads such as static web serving, software compilation, and database operations that do not require high-speed local storage.

      Workload Profiles

      0.705Score
      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.
