      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A memory-optimized virtual server featuring a high memory-to-core ratio for caching, database operations, and memory-intensive enterprise workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.r6.2xlarge is a memory-optimized instance featuring 8 dedicated Intel Xeon 8269CY physical cores running at 2.5 GHz on an x86_64 architecture. Equipped with 64.0 GB of RAM, it delivers a high memory-to-vCPU ratio of 8.0 GB per core, though it lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Benchmark data shows average multi-core and memory bandwidth performance, alongside average results in Redis SET operations and database tasks, contrasted by weaker single-core compute speeds. This hardware profile offers a cost-effective solution for memory-heavy workloads where massive memory capacity is prioritized over raw single-threaded processing power. It is suitable for hosting databases, in-memory caching layers, and static web serving applications.

      Workload Profiles

      0.448Score
      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.
