      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated dual-core Intel Xeon instance with four gigabytes of memory for lightweight, non-storage-intensive computing tasks.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.hfc5.large is an x86_64 server featuring a dedicated Intel Xeon 6149 processor with 2 physical cores, 2 vCPUs, and 4.0 GB of RAM. Operating on a KVM hypervisor, it provides a 1 Gbps baseline network bandwidth but lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Benchmark evaluations place its compute and memory performance in the lower tiers, with a stress-ng single-core score of 1347.29 and a multi-core score of 1787.79. Memory bandwidth is limited, measuring 10.2 GB/sec for large uncached blocks. Given these hardware constraints and poor database performance metrics, this instance is best suited for lightweight, non-data-intensive workloads such as basic web serving, simple text processing, and low-demand background tasks where dedicated CPU allocation is required without the need for high memory or storage throughput.

      Workload Profiles

      0.116Score
      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.
