      Server Description

      A general-purpose instance featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors, balanced memory density, and optimized network throughput for multi-threaded workloads.

      General Purpose

      Amazon Web Services m5n.8xlarge is a general-purpose, network-optimized instance featuring 32 dedicated vCPUs and 128.0 GB of DDR4 memory. Powered by an Intel Xeon 8259CL processor running at 3.1 GHz on the Nitro hypervisor, it delivers a balanced 1:4 vCPU-to-RAM ratio. The instance lacks local storage and GPUs, relying on network-attached storage and a baseline network bandwidth of 25 Gbps. Benchmark data shows weak single-core performance, but average multi-core and memory bandwidth capabilities, with a Passmark CPU score of 26,438.58 and a Redis SET throughput of 25.86 million operations per second. It is suited for multi-threaded workloads, database operations, static web serving, and small-to-medium LLM inference, though it exhibits poor performance on larger models.

      Workload Profiles

      1.2Score
      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.
