      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      High-density local HDD storage combined with dedicated 12 vCPU compute capabilities for big data, logging, and bulk storage workloads.

      Storage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.d1.3xlarge is a local storage instance optimized for high-capacity data retention and sequential throughput. Running on KVM virtualization, it features an Intel Xeon E5-2682v4 CPU operating at 2.5 GHz on the x86_64 architecture, delivering 6 physical cores and 12 vCPUs. The setup is equipped with 48 GB of memory, a baseline network bandwidth of 4 Gbps, and a bundled local HDD storage capacity of 35,433 GB. Benchmark results indicate low single-core processing capabilities, balanced by average multi-core CPU metrics, including a PassMark CPU score of 10074.03 and a multi-threaded stress-ng result of 8789.97. Memory throughput reaches 54.9 GB/sec for uncached read operations. The instance offers strong cost efficiency for bulk storage workloads, trading peak per-core processing speed for high local disk density. It is suited for big data storage, log processing, and distributed database nodes.

      Workload Profiles

      0.43Score
      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.
