      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated Intel-powered server offering a balanced resource profile and stable mid-tier performance for general-purpose and database workloads.

      General PurposeCompute Optimized

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.hfg6.4xlarge is a general-purpose server instance featuring 16 dedicated Intel Xeon 8269CY vCPUs running at 3.1 GHz on the x86_64 architecture. It is equipped with 64.0 GB of RAM, providing a balanced 1:4 vCPU-to-RAM ratio, but lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Operating on a KVM hypervisor, the instance delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 5 Gbps. Benchmark results place this server in the average tier, with a Geekbench multi-core score of 7869.0 and a static web serving throughput of 12.4 GB/sec. While it demonstrates solid performance for standard tasks, such as processing 15.39 million Redis SET operations per second, its prompt processing speed for medium 7B LLM models is weak at 23.22 tokens/sec. This instance is highly suitable for general-purpose applications, web serving, database operations, and software compilation.

      Workload Profiles

      0.861Score
      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.
