      Server Description

      An arm64 compute-optimized instance featuring dedicated physical cores and balanced performance for web serving and software compilation.

      Compute Optimized

      Amazon Web Services c8g.xlarge is an arm64 compute-optimized instance powered by a 4-core AWS Graviton Neoverse-V2 processor running at 2.8 GHz. It features 8.0 GB of memory, a Nitro hypervisor, and a baseline network speed of 2 Gbps, with no local storage. Benchmarks show average performance in web serving and software compilation, alongside strong single-threaded bzip3 decompression. However, it exhibits weak performance in cryptographic tests and memory-intensive benchmarks. This instance represents a cost-efficient option for dedicated, compute-focused workloads like static web serving and compilation, though it is constrained by its 2.0 GB per core memory allocation and lack of local storage.

      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.
