      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A budget-friendly, shared-CPU virtual instance with balanced memory for lightweight development, testing, and basic web serving workloads.

      General PurposeBurstable & Budget

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.mn4.large is a general-purpose, entry-level instance featuring 2 shared vCPUs and 8.0 GB of RAM, powered by an Intel Xeon 8269CY processor running at 2.5 GHz on the KVM hypervisor. Lacking local storage and dedicated GPU accelerators, this x86_64 instance is designed for resource-light applications. Benchmark data places its single-core and multi-core compute performance in the lower percentiles, with stress-ng and Geekbench results reflecting its shared CPU allocation. Memory bandwidth also shows a steep decline when handling uncached large blocks. Consequently, this instance is highly cost-efficient for lightweight workloads such as basic static web serving, development and testing environments, small Redis caches, and simple background utility tasks that do not demand high-throughput networking or sustained, intensive CPU utilization.

      Workload Profiles

      0.175Score
      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.
