CPU and System Topology
Server Description
A dedicated dual-core x86_64 instance with balanced memory allocation for lightweight general-purpose workloads and development environments.
Alibaba Cloud ecs.g6a.large is a general-purpose instance featuring 2 dedicated vCPUs powered by an AMD EPYC 7H12 processor running at 2.6 GHz, paired with 8.0 GB of RAM. Operating on the x86_64 architecture under the KVM hypervisor, this instance does not include local storage or GPU hardware, and provides a baseline network bandwidth of 1 Gbps. Performance benchmarks place the instance in the lower tiers, with stress-ng CPU and Passmark database scores falling in the bottom 10%. Memory bandwidth is also limited, with uncached reads at 23.06 GB/sec. While single-threaded bzip3 decompression achieves average performance, the instance's overall profile makes it suitable primarily for low-intensity general-purpose workloads, development environments, and lightweight web serving where dedicated CPU resources are required but high computational throughput is not necessary.
