      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated general-purpose instance offering balanced compute and memory resources for moderate application hosting and development workloads.

      General Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.sn2.xlarge is a general-purpose instance featuring 8 dedicated Intel Xeon 8269CY vCPUs running at 2.5 GHz, paired with 32.0 GB of RAM. Operating on the KVM hypervisor with an x86_64 architecture, this instance does not include local storage or GPU accelerators and provides a baseline network bandwidth of 2 Gbps. Benchmark data indicates generally weak to average performance, with a Passmark CPU score of 6995.67 and weak single-core and multi-core Geekbench results. While memory write bandwidth and small-model LLM inference achieve average ratings, database and web serving throughput are weak. Given its dedicated resource allocation but modest performance profile, the ecs.sn2.xlarge is best suited for general-purpose workloads, development environments, and moderate application hosting.

      Workload Profiles

      0.302Score
      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.
