CPU and System Topology

Server Description

A GPU-accelerated instance featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors, local NVMe storage, and an NVIDIA T4 GPU for efficient machine learning inference.

GPU AcceleratedGeneral PurposeStorage & Database

Amazon Web Services g4dn.2xlarge is a GPU-accelerated instance designed for graphics-intensive and machine learning workloads. Powered by an Intel Xeon 8259CL processor with 8 dedicated vCPUs and 32.0 GB of DDR4 memory, it features a single NVIDIA T4 GPU with 16 GB of VRAM. Storage is provided by a 225 GB local NVMe SSD, and network connectivity is rated at a 10 Gbps baseline. While general CPU benchmarks and single-threaded operations perform in the lower to average tiers, the instance delivers top-tier performance in LLM inference prompt processing and strong text generation speeds for small and medium models. This hardware profile makes the g4dn.2xlarge highly efficient for small-scale machine learning deployment, graphics rendering, and database operations requiring local NVMe caching.

Workload Profiles

0.439Score
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.
