CPU and System Topology

Server Description

A graphics-focused virtual server featuring quad AMD Radeon GPUs, local NVMe storage, and 64 vCPUs for parallelized and ray-tracing workloads.

GPU AcceleratedStorage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

Amazon Web Services g4ad.16xlarge is a graphics-intensive virtual server powered by an AMD EPYC 7R32 processor with 64 vCPUs, 256.0 GB of DDR4 RAM, and four AMD Radeon Pro Navi V520 GPUs providing 32 GB of total VRAM. It features 2400 GB of local NVMe SSD storage and 25 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. While single-core CPU benchmarks are poor, multi-core performance is average, and Passmark CPU, encryption, and Geekbench ray tracing benchmarks register as strong. This resource-dense configuration offers qualitative cost efficiency for parallel graphics workloads and multi-threaded processing. It is suited for ray tracing, graphics-intensive applications, database operations, and moderate LLM inference, though it is constrained by lower single-core performance.

Workload Profiles

2.1Score
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.
