      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An arm64-based general-purpose instance featuring dedicated physical cores and balanced memory for efficient database and multi-threaded workloads.

      General Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.g8y.8xlarge is a general-purpose instance featuring 32 dedicated physical cores on the arm64 Alibaba Yitian710 processor running at 2.75 GHz. It is equipped with 128.0 GB of RAM, yielding 4.0 GB per core, and operates on a KVM hypervisor with a 16 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. The instance does not include local storage or GPU acceleration. Performance benchmarks indicate strong capabilities in multi-threaded bzip3 decompression (272.21 GB/sec) and database operations, alongside average multi-core CPU performance. The custom Arm architecture provides qualitative cost efficiency through high resource density and dedicated, non-hyperthreaded execution. This server is suited for database workloads, multi-threaded data processing, static web serving, and light machine learning inference.

      Performance

      Workload Profiles

      1.9Score
      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.
