      Server Description

      An ARM64 compute-optimized virtual server featuring eight dedicated physical cores and balanced multi-threaded performance for containerized workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Amazon Web Services c6g.2xlarge is an ARM64 compute-optimized instance powered by an 8-core AWS Graviton2 Neoverse-N1 processor running at 2.5 GHz on the Nitro hypervisor. It features 16.0 GB of system memory, yielding a 2.0 GB per vCPU ratio, with no hyperthreading. The hardware includes 32 MB of L3 cache and supports AES cryptography, but lacks local storage and dedicated GPUs. Network performance is rated at a baseline of 2 Gbps. Benchmarks show average multi-core performance, with a stress-ng multi-core score of 12,132.72, and strong cached memory read bandwidth of 472.95 GB/sec. However, single-core metrics and compression speeds are weak. This instance is qualitatively cost-efficient for multi-threaded workloads, making it suitable for static web serving, software compilation, and containerized applications, while being less optimal for memory-heavy or single-threaded tasks.

      Workload Profiles

      0.548Score
      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.
