      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated dual-core compute instance featuring a 3.3 GHz Intel Xeon processor for predictable, lightweight single-threaded workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.hfc7.large is a compute-oriented x86_64 server instance featuring 2 dedicated vCPUs powered by an Intel Xeon 8369HB processor running at 3.3 GHz. It is configured with 4.0 GB of RAM, providing 2.0 GB per core, and has no local storage or GPU. Operating on a KVM hypervisor, it delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 1 Gbps. Benchmark data shows average single-core CPU performance, but poor multi-core and memory bandwidth capabilities, with large-block read speeds limited to 15.84 GB/sec. Due to these resource constraints and the lack of local storage, the instance is best suited for lightweight, single-threaded workloads, basic web serving, and simple text processing tasks rather than memory-intensive or highly parallelized applications.

      Workload Profiles

      0.178Score
      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.
