      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A general-purpose cloud instance with 32 vCPUs, 128 GB RAM, and high single-core performance powered by AMD EPYC processors.

      General PurposeCompute Optimized

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.g8ae.8xlarge is a general-purpose instance featuring 32 dedicated vCPUs derived from 16 physical AMD EPYC 9T34 cores operating at 3.4 GHz with hyperthreading enabled. It is equipped with 128.0 GB of system memory, yielding 4.0 GB per vCPU, and provides a baseline network bandwidth of 20 Gbps. The underlying x86_64 architecture incorporates AVX-512, VNNI, BF16, and AES instruction sets. Benchmark data indicates top-tier single-core CPU execution and strong performance in Geekbench metrics alongside robust memory and cryptographic throughput, while multi-core workloads perform at an average level. The instance omits local SSD storage and GPU accelerators, relying on attached cloud storage solutions. This configuration suits enterprise web applications, Redis caching nodes, software build environments, and general-purpose backend services requiring strong single-threaded CPU speed and balanced resource density.

      Workload Profiles

      1.5Score
      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.
