      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A GPU-accelerated virtual instance featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and an NVIDIA T4 GPU for multi-threaded and graphics-intensive workloads.

      GPU AcceleratedGeneral Purpose

      Alibaba Cloud ecs.vgn6i-m16-vws.5xlarge is a GPU-accelerated virtual server designed for workloads requiring dedicated graphics processing and balanced system resources. Built on the x86_64 architecture, it features 20 dedicated vCPUs powered by an Intel Xeon 8163 processor running at 2.5 GHz, alongside 92.0 GB of RAM. The instance includes a bundled NVIDIA T4 GPU with 16 GB of VRAM, though it lacks local storage. Network performance is anchored by an 8 Gbps baseline bandwidth. Benchmark data reveals average multi-core CPU and memory bandwidth performance, contrasting with weaker single-core processing capabilities. This hardware profile makes the instance highly suitable for virtual workstations, image processing, multi-threaded database operations, and 3D ray tracing workloads that benefit from GPU acceleration.

      Workload Profiles

      0.79Score
      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.
