      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A compute-dense, multi-core server featuring a 1:1 processor-to-memory ratio designed for highly parallelized workloads with low memory requirements.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.ic5.8xlarge is an x86_64 compute-focused server instance featuring 32 dedicated physical cores powered by an Intel Xeon 8163 processor running at 2.5 GHz. It is configured with 32.0 GB of RAM, providing a 1:1 vCPU-to-memory ratio, and lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Network connectivity is established at a baseline of 10 Gbps. Performance benchmarks reveal weak single-core execution, but average multi-core capabilities, supported by AVX-512 instruction sets. Memory bandwidth and multi-threaded decompression also perform in the average tier. This hardware profile is qualitatively cost-efficient for highly parallelized, compute-dense workloads with low memory requirements, such as static web serving, multi-threaded compilation, and distributed computing tasks that do not demand large memory footprints.

      Workload Profiles

      1.08Score
      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.
