      Server Description

      A balanced general-purpose instance featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and DDR4 memory for stable multi-core workloads.

      General Purpose

      Amazon Web Services m5.4xlarge is a general-purpose instance featuring 16 dedicated vCPUs and 64.0 GB of DDR4 memory, running on an Intel Xeon 8175M processor at 3.1 GHz. Built on the AWS Nitro hypervisor, it provides a balanced 1:4 vCPU-to-RAM ratio but lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Performance benchmarks show a distinct contrast: single-core processing is weak, falling into the bottom 25%, while multi-core performance, memory bandwidth, and database operations consistently rank in the average tier. With a baseline network bandwidth of 5 Gbps, this instance is qualitatively cost-efficient for balanced workloads that do not require specialized hardware. It is best suited for general-purpose applications, including static web serving, Redis caching, software compilation, and mid-range database operations.

      Workload Profiles

      0.766Score
      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.
