      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A budget-friendly general-purpose instance featuring balanced memory-to-CPU ratios for lightweight development and basic web serving workloads.

      General PurposeBurstable & Budget

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.mn4.xlarge is a general-purpose virtual machine instance configured with 4 vCPUs and 16.0 GB of RAM. Powered by an Intel Xeon 8269CY processor running at 2.5 GHz on the x86_64 architecture, this KVM-based instance features a shared CPU allocation and a baseline network bandwidth of 1 Gbps. It does not include local storage or GPU accelerators. Benchmark results indicate weak performance across most compute, memory, and compression tests, with single-core and multi-core scores generally falling into the bottom 25%. While memory write bandwidth remains average, database operations and text processing show poor performance. Consequently, this instance is best suited for low-intensity workloads, such as basic web serving, development environments, and lightweight testing, offering a cost-effective option for resource-dense, non-critical applications.

      Workload Profiles

      0.279Score
      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.
