      Server Description

      An x86_64 compute-optimized configuration featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processing, DDR5 memory, and strong single-core execution speeds for processing-heavy workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Amazon Web Services c7i-flex.2xlarge is an x86_64 compute-optimized server featuring an Intel Xeon 8488C processor with 8 dedicated vCPUs, 4 physical cores, and a 3.2 GHz clock speed. It is equipped with 16.0 GB of DDR5 memory running at 5 GHz, but lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Built on the Nitro hypervisor, it delivers a baseline network bandwidth of 2 Gbps. Performance benchmarks show strong single-core capabilities, including a Geekbench single-core score of 2055.0 and high single-threaded compression speeds, though memory performance is relatively weak. The processor supports advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and Intel AMX. This configuration is suited for compute-heavy workloads such as web serving, software compilation, and small-scale model inference where a 1:2 memory-to-vCPU ratio is optimal.

      Workload Profiles

      0.76Score
      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.
