      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An x86_64 server featuring dedicated Intel Xeon cores, integrated local SSD storage, and balanced memory for general-purpose workloads.

      General PurposeStorage & Database

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.i1.2xlarge is an x86_64 general-purpose server instance powered by an Intel Xeon E5-2682v4 processor running at 2.5 GHz. It features 8 dedicated physical cores (8 vCPUs), 32.0 GB of RAM, and a 446 GB local SSD. Operating on a KVM hypervisor, the instance provides a baseline network bandwidth of 2 Gbps. Benchmark data shows average performance in Passmark CPU tests and Redis SET operations, alongside average prompt processing for small LLM models. However, it exhibits weaker performance in stress-ng CPU tests, memory read bandwidth, and larger LLM inference tasks. This instance is qualitatively cost-efficient for workloads that benefit from dedicated CPU cores and local SSD storage, such as moderate database operations, static web serving, and general-purpose applications, while presenting performance tradeoffs in memory-intensive and high-compute scenarios.

      Workload Profiles

      0.334Score
      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.
