      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An arm64-powered general-purpose instance delivering high multi-core density and strong memory bandwidth for parallelized workloads and caching layers.

      General PurposeCompute Optimized

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.g6r.16xlarge is an arm64 general-purpose instance powered by a 64-core Ampere Altra processor clocked at 2.8 GHz, paired with 256 GB of RAM. Operating on a KVM hypervisor with dedicated CPU allocation, this server offers a balanced 4 GB of memory per core but lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. It features a 16 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. Performance benchmarks highlight strong multi-core capabilities, including a multi-threaded bzip3 decompression rate of 413.03 GB/sec and 82.33 million Redis SET operations per second, though single-core performance remains average. Additionally, it delivers a static web serving throughput of 33.73 GB/sec and handles medium-sized 7B LLM inference at 21.03 text generation tokens per second. The ARM-based architecture provides a cost-efficient profile for highly parallelized workloads, making this instance well-suited for multi-threaded applications, web serving, Redis caching, and containerized microservices.

      Workload Profiles

      2.6Score
      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.
