    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An x86 GPU-accelerated instance featuring an NVIDIA T4 GPU and dedicated Intel Xeon processors for efficient machine learning inference.

    GPU AcceleratedGeneral Purpose

    Alibaba Cloud ecs.gn6i-c16g1.4xlarge is a GPU-accelerated instance featuring 16 dedicated Intel Xeon 8163 vCPUs running at 2.5 GHz, 62.0 GB of system memory, and a single NVIDIA T4 GPU with 16 GB of VRAM. Built on the KVM hypervisor with an x86_64 architecture, the instance does not include local storage and provides a baseline network bandwidth of 6 Gbps. Benchmark data reveals weak single-core CPU performance, but multi-core capabilities and memory bandwidth remain in the average tier. The instance excels in GPU-driven tasks, demonstrating top-tier prompt processing speeds for small and medium LLMs. This hardware profile makes the instance highly suitable for machine learning inference, video processing, and parallel computing workloads that benefit from GPU acceleration while maintaining a balanced resource-to-cost ratio.

    Workload Profiles

    0.689Score
    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.
