      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A memory-optimized virtual instance featuring a high memory-to-vCPU ratio for lightweight, memory-bound workloads without high compute demands.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.r5.large is a memory-optimized instance featuring 2 dedicated vCPUs on an Intel Xeon 8163 processor with x86_64 architecture and a 2.5 GHz clock speed. It is equipped with 16.0 GB of RAM, providing a high memory-to-vCPU ratio of 8.0 GB per core, but lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Operating on the KVM hypervisor, it delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 1 Gbps. Performance benchmarks place this instance in the lower percentiles, with a Geekbench single-core score of 981.0 and multi-core score of 1184.0, alongside a Redis SET throughput of 1.44 million operations per second. Given its high memory density relative to compute resources, the ecs.r5.large is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-bound workloads that do not demand high CPU performance, such as lightweight database caching, small-scale key-value stores, and basic web serving.
