      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A budget-friendly, burstable x86_64 instance with eight vCPUs and sixteen gigabytes of memory for variable-demand workloads.

      Burstable & BudgetCompute Optimized

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.t5-c1m2.2xlarge is an x86_64 burstable instance powered by an Intel Xeon 8163 processor operating at 2.5 GHz. It features 8 vCPUs, 16.0 GB of RAM, and a baseline network bandwidth of 1 Gbps, with no local storage or GPU accelerators. Performance benchmarks indicate weak single-core capabilities, placing in the bottom 10%, while multi-core and memory bandwidth tests achieve average tier results. Due to its burstable CPU allocation, this instance offers a cost-efficient profile for workloads with variable CPU demands, such as development environments, low-traffic web servers, and light background tasks, while presenting a performance tradeoff under sustained high-compute loads.

      Workload Profiles

      0.33Score
      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.
