    Server Description

    A balanced general-purpose platform combining dedicated Intel Xeon processing with high-capacity local NVMe SSD storage for parallelized workloads.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services m6id.16xlarge is a general-purpose instance featuring 64 vCPUs, 32 physical cores, and 256 GB of DDR4 RAM, powered by a 3.5 GHz Intel Xeon 8375C processor on the Nitro hypervisor. It integrates 3800 GB of local NVMe SSD storage and a 25 Gbps baseline network speed. Benchmarks indicate strong multi-core capabilities, with top-quartile performance in multi-core CPU tests, software compilation, and database operations, while single-core performance and memory bandwidth sit in the average tier. The inclusion of local NVMe storage alongside balanced compute resources provides qualitative cost efficiency for data-intensive applications. This instance is suited for database hosting, parallelized build pipelines, static web serving, and multi-threaded enterprise workloads.

    Workload Profiles

    2.67Score
    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.
