CPU and System Topology

Server Description

An x86_64 GPU-accelerated instance featuring an NVIDIA A10G GPU, local NVMe storage, and top-tier performance for LLM inference workloads.

GPU AcceleratedGeneral PurposeStorage & Database

Amazon Web Services g5.8xlarge is an x86_64 graphics-intensive instance featuring 32 dedicated vCPUs from an AMD EPYC 7R32 processor running at 3.3 GHz, paired with 128.0 GB of DDR4 memory. It includes a single NVIDIA Ampere A10G GPU with 22 GB of VRAM and 900 GB of local NVMe SSD storage, supported by a 25 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. While single-core CPU benchmarks rank in the bottom 10%, the instance delivers top-tier performance in the top 10% for small and medium LLM inference tasks. Multi-core CPU and memory bandwidth benchmarks remain average. Qualitatively, the instance provides high resource density for GPU-dependent tasks, making it a viable option for machine learning inference, graphics rendering, and database operations that require local NVMe storage and hardware acceleration rather than raw single-threaded CPU performance.

Workload Profiles

1.23Score
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.
