      Server Description

      An arm64 compute-optimized instance featuring dedicated Graviton cores and balanced single-threaded performance for lightweight workloads.

      Compute Optimized

      Amazon Web Services c8g.large is an arm64 compute-optimized instance powered by a 2.8 GHz AWS Graviton Neoverse-V2 processor. It features 2 dedicated vCPUs, 2 physical cores, and 4.0 GB of system memory, operating on the Nitro hypervisor. The instance lacks local storage and GPUs, and it provides a 1 Gbps baseline network speed. Benchmarks show average single-core performance, highlighted by a Geekbench single-core score of 1808.0 and strong single-threaded bzip3 decompression at 14.15 GB/sec. However, multi-core performance and memory bandwidth are generally weak, with a Geekbench multi-core score of 3220.0 and a passmark memory score of 1099.29. This instance is qualitatively cost-efficient for lightweight, arm64-native workloads, single-threaded applications, and basic database operations, but is constrained for memory-heavy or highly parallelized tasks.

      Workload Profiles

      0.312Score
      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.
