      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A compute-optimized instance featuring three hundred eighty-four virtual cores, DDR5 memory, and top-tier multi-threaded capabilities for parallel processing.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Amazon Web Services c8i.96xlarge is an x86_64 compute-optimized instance featuring 384 vCPUs and 192 physical cores powered by an Intel Xeon 6975P-C processor at 3.9 GHz. Equipped with 768.0 GB of DDR5 memory and a 100 Gbps network baseline, this Nitro-based server lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Benchmarks indicate top-tier multi-core CPU performance, memory bandwidth, and database operations, though single-core execution and LLM text generation speeds are comparatively limited. The instance is designed for highly parallelized compute workloads, including software compilation, multi-threaded decompression, and high-throughput web serving.

      Workload Profiles

      14Score
      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.
