      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated eight-core Intel Xeon instance offering balanced memory and compute for predictable general-purpose workloads and database operations.

      General Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.g7nex.2xlarge is an x86_64 general-purpose instance featuring 8 dedicated Intel Xeon 8369B physical cores running at 2.7 GHz, paired with 32.0 GB of RAM. Operating on the KVM hypervisor, this instance provides a balanced 1:4 vCPU-to-RAM ratio, 10 Gbps baseline network bandwidth, and no bundled local storage or GPUs. Benchmark results place its performance in the average tier, with a stress-ng multi-core score of 7753.77 and a Passmark CPU score of 11362.25. It demonstrates strong throughput capabilities, achieving 11.47 GB/sec in static web serving and 7.8 million operations per second in Redis SET benchmarks. This configuration is optimized for predictable, mid-range workloads such as web serving, database operations, and general-purpose application hosting where dedicated CPU execution is required without the overhead of specialized hardware.

      Workload Profiles

      0.603Score
      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.
