      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A compute-optimized x86_64 platform featuring thirty-two dedicated Intel Xeon cores and a balanced memory-to-CPU ratio for compute-heavy workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.hfc6.8xlarge is a compute-optimized instance featuring 32 dedicated physical cores powered by an Intel Xeon 8269CY processor running at 3.1 GHz. Built on the x86_64 architecture, it provides 64.0 GB of system memory, establishing a 2.0 GB per core ratio. The instance lacks local storage and GPU accelerators, utilizing KVM virtualization and a 10 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. Performance benchmarks show a multi-core stress-ng score of 30631.79 and a Passmark CPU score of 29137.73. It delivers 29.05 million operations per second in Redis SET tests and processes 7B LLM text generation at 12.14 tokens per second. This hardware profile makes the instance cost-efficient for CPU-heavy, memory-light workloads. It is suited for software compilation, multi-threaded decompression, and static web serving.

      Workload Profiles

      1.4Score
      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.
