      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated multi-core server featuring massive local HDD storage capacity for large-scale data archiving and sequential processing workloads.

      Storage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.d1.3xlarge is an x86_64 server instance featuring 12 dedicated Intel Xeon E5-2682v4 vCPUs, 48.0 GB of RAM, and a substantial 35,433 GB of local HDD storage. Operating on a KVM hypervisor with a 4 Gbps baseline network bandwidth, this instance exhibits a clear tradeoff between massive storage capacity and compute performance. Benchmarks indicate weak single-core CPU capabilities, with Geekbench single-core scores in the bottom 10% and weak single-threaded compression speeds. However, multi-core performance and memory bandwidth remain in the average tier. Given the high density of local HDD storage and moderate multi-core processing, the ecs.d1.3xlarge is qualitatively cost-efficient for storage-heavy, non-latency-sensitive workloads. It is best suited for data archiving, distributed file systems, and log processing applications that do not require high random IOPS or rapid single-threaded execution.

      Workload Profiles

      0.427Score
      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.
