    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An energy-efficient ARM64 virtual machine featuring dedicated NVIDIA GPU acceleration for graphics-intensive workloads and lightweight parallel processing.

    GPU AcceleratedCompute Optimized

    Amazon Web Services g5g.2xlarge is an arm64-based virtual machine featuring 8 dedicated AWS ARMv8 Neoverse-N1 physical cores running at 2.5 GHz, paired with 16.0 GB of system memory. It includes a dedicated NVIDIA Turing T4G GPU with 16 GB of VRAM, though it lacks local storage and provides a baseline network bandwidth of 2 Gbps. Benchmarks show average performance in multi-core processing, software compilation, and ray tracing, but reveal weaknesses in single-core execution, text processing, and cryptographic operations. Due to these performance characteristics, the instance is best suited for graphics-intensive applications, image processing, and lightweight GPU-accelerated workloads. It is less optimal for large language model inference or tasks requiring high cryptographic throughput.

    Workload Profiles

    0.559Score
    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.
