      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An x86_64 server featuring eight dedicated cores, sixty-four gigabytes of RAM, and nearly two terabytes of local SSD storage.

      Storage & DatabaseMemory Optimized

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.i3.2xlarge is an x86_64 server featuring an Intel Xeon 8269CY processor with 8 dedicated vCPUs, 64.0 GB of RAM, and 1919 GB of local SSD storage. Operating on a KVM hypervisor, this instance provides a baseline network bandwidth of 3 Gbps. Benchmark results place its multi-core CPU, memory bandwidth, and database operations in the average tier, while single-core performance and single-threaded compression tasks register as weak. Large-model LLM inference performance is poor, making it unsuitable for complex AI workloads. The high local storage capacity and 1:8 vCPU-to-RAM ratio make this server configuration appropriate for database hosting, static web serving, and data-intensive applications requiring significant local storage, offering a balanced resource density for storage-centric workloads.

      Workload Profiles

      0.472Score
      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.
