    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An x86_64 GPU-accelerated instance featuring an NVIDIA T4 GPU, optimized for machine learning inference and parallel computing workloads.

    GPU AcceleratedGeneral Purpose

    Alibaba Cloud ecs.gn6i-c24g1.6xlarge is an x86_64 GPU-accelerated server featuring 24 dedicated vCPUs from an Intel Xeon 8163 processor, 93.0 GB of RAM, and an 8 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. It includes a single NVIDIA T4 GPU with 16 GB of VRAM, while local storage is absent. Performance benchmarks show weak single-core CPU capabilities but average multi-core and memory bandwidth results. Crucially, the instance delivers top-tier performance in LLM inference prompt processing, making it highly efficient for deploying smaller AI models. Qualitatively, it serves as a cost-effective option for GPU-driven workloads, trading off raw single-threaded CPU speed and local storage for affordable parallel processing. It is best suited for machine learning inference, video encoding, and GPU-assisted general-purpose workloads.

    Workload Profiles

    0.91Score
    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.
