    Server Description

    An ARM64 general-purpose server featuring dedicated Graviton processors, balanced memory, and high-capacity local NVMe SSD storage for multi-threaded workloads.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services m6gd.8xlarge is an ARM64 general-purpose server featuring 32 dedicated physical cores powered by AWS Graviton Neoverse-N1 processors at 2.5 GHz. It includes 128.0 GB of RAM, a 1900 GB local NVMe SSD instance store, and a 12 Gbps baseline network speed. Operating on the Nitro hypervisor, it delivers average multi-core performance, with a Geekbench multi-core score of 11587.0 and 36.57 million Redis SET operations per second. However, single-core performance represents a tradeoff, with Geekbench single-core scores and single-threaded bzip3 decompression falling into the lower percentiles. This server is qualitatively cost-efficient for multi-threaded workloads that benefit from local NVMe storage, such as database operations, static web serving, and software compilation, while being less suited for single-threaded applications.

    Workload Profiles

    1.52Score
    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.
