      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated 32-core x86_64 virtual server offering balanced memory allocation and steady multi-threaded performance for general-purpose workloads.

      General Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.sn2.7xlarge is a general-purpose virtual machine instance featuring 32 dedicated vCPUs powered by an Intel Xeon 8163 processor running at 2.5 GHz. Built on the x86_64 architecture under the KVM hypervisor, it includes 128.0 GB of RAM, providing a balanced 4.0 GB per core, with no local storage or GPU accelerators. While single-core benchmarks for this instance are weak, its 32 dedicated cores deliver average multi-core performance across stress-ng, Geekbench, and PassMark CPU tests. The instance also achieves average results in database operations, Redis SET operations, and static web serving. With a baseline network bandwidth of 6 Gbps, the ecs.sn2.7xlarge is qualitatively cost-efficient for multi-threaded workloads, making it suitable for general-purpose applications, moderate database deployments, and web serving.

      Workload Profiles

      0.94Score
      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.
