CPU and System Topology

Server Description

An x86 virtual server featuring a dedicated NVIDIA L4 GPU, local NVMe storage, and top-tier small-to-medium LLM inference performance.

GPU AcceleratedGeneral PurposeStorage & Database

Amazon Web Services g6.2xlarge is a GPU-accelerated instance featuring an AMD EPYC 7R13 processor with 8 vCPUs, 32.0 GB of DDR4 memory, and a dedicated NVIDIA Ada Lovelace L4 GPU with 22 GB of VRAM. It includes 450 GB of local NVMe SSD storage and a 5 Gbps baseline network speed. Performance benchmarks indicate strong single-core CPU execution and top-tier LLM inference speeds for small and medium models, though large-block memory bandwidth is a notable bottleneck, scoring in the bottom 25%. Qualitatively, the g6.2xlarge offers a cost-efficient entry point for hardware-accelerated workloads by bundling dedicated GPU resources and fast local storage within a moderate 8-vCPU envelope. This profile is suited for machine learning inference, graphics rendering, and database workloads.

Workload Profiles

0.486Score
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.
