CPU and System Topology

Server Description

A GPU-accelerated server featuring an NVIDIA L40S GPU, local NVMe storage, and high-capacity VRAM for demanding machine learning and graphics workloads.

GPU AcceleratedMemory OptimizedStorage & Database

Amazon Web Services g6e.2xlarge is a GPU-accelerated server instance featuring an x86_64 AMD EPYC 7R13 processor with 8 vCPUs, 64.0 GB of DDR4 memory, and a baseline network bandwidth of 5 Gbps. It is equipped with a single NVIDIA L40S GPU providing 45 GB of VRAM and 450 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. While the instance exhibits average multi-core CPU performance and weak large-block memory bandwidth, it delivers strong single-core CPU performance and top-tier LLM inference speeds for small and medium models. Qualitatively, the server provides high resource density by combining a high-VRAM GPU with local NVMe storage, making it a cost-effective option for specialized tasks. The g6e.2xlarge is suited for workloads such as large language model inference, machine learning, and graphics-intensive applications.

Workload Profiles

0.48Score
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.
