      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A budget-friendly, shared-vCPU virtual machine with a balanced memory-to-core ratio for lightweight utility workloads and basic web serving.

      General PurposeBurstable & Budget

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.mn4.small is a general-purpose virtual machine featuring 1 shared vCPU and 4.0 GB of RAM, running on an Intel Xeon 8269CY processor at 2.5 GHz. Utilizing the x86_64 architecture, this KVM-hypervised instance includes no local storage or dedicated GPU, and has a baseline network bandwidth of 0 Gbps. Benchmark results place its compute and memory performance in the lower percentiles, with a stress-ng CPU score of 1072.5 and a PassMark CPU score of 1259.2. Due to its shared CPU allocation and low-tier performance metrics, this instance offers a cost-efficient profile for low-demand workloads. It is best utilized for lightweight tasks such as basic static web serving, simple Redis operations, and development environments where sustained high-throughput computing and high network speeds are not required.

      Workload Profiles

      0.098Score
      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.
