    Server Description

    An ARM64 general-purpose instance featuring dedicated physical cores, balanced memory allocation, and high-capacity local NVMe SSD storage.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services m6gd.12xlarge is a general-purpose instance powered by 48 dedicated physical cores of the ARM64 AWS Graviton Neoverse-N1 processor running at 2.5 GHz. It features 192.0 GB of system memory and 2850 GB of local NVMe SSD storage, operating on the AWS Nitro hypervisor with a 20 Gbps baseline network speed. Performance benchmarks show strong multi-core CPU capabilities, though single-core execution speeds and large-scale LLM text generation fall into lower percentiles. The ARM64 architecture delivers qualitative cost efficiency through high resource density and dedicated cores. This instance is suited for multi-threaded applications, database operations, static web serving, and software compilation workloads that benefit from local high-speed storage.

    Workload Profiles

    2.01Score
    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.
