      Server Description

      A dedicated compute-optimized virtual server featuring sixteen vCPUs and thirty gigabytes of memory for CPU-intensive processing tasks.

      Compute Optimized

      Amazon Web Services c4.4xlarge is a compute-optimized instance designed for CPU-intensive workloads. Powered by the Xen hypervisor, it features a dedicated Intel Xeon E5-2666 v3 processor with 16 vCPUs, 8 physical cores, and a 2.9 GHz clock speed. The hardware configuration includes 30.0 GB of memory, a 25 MB L3 cache, and support for AVX and FMA instruction sets. It does not include local storage or integrated GPUs, relying on network-attached storage and offering a baseline network bandwidth of 5 Gbps. Benchmark results show average performance, with a PassMark CPU score of 15674.33 and a Redis SET throughput of 6.16 million operations per second. While it handles small-model LLM inference efficiently, performance drops on larger models. This instance is best suited for compute-heavy applications such as software compilation, ray tracing, and static web serving.

      Workload Profiles

      0.648Score
      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.
