    Server Description

    A balanced general-purpose instance featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processing and high-speed local NVMe SSD storage for low-latency workloads.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services m6id.xlarge is a general-purpose instance featuring 4 vCPUs and 16.0 GB of DDR4 memory, powered by an Intel Xeon 8375C processor running at 3.5 GHz. Built on the AWS Nitro hypervisor, this x86_64 server includes a bundled 237 GB NVMe SSD local instance store and a baseline network bandwidth of 2 Gbps. Benchmark data shows average single-core performance, with a Geekbench single-core score of 1649.0, but weaker multi-core scaling and memory bandwidth. The processor supports AVX-512 and cryptographic acceleration, yielding average results in encryption tests. Given its balanced resource profile and local NVMe storage, the m6id.xlarge is suited for general-purpose workloads, basic web serving, and lightweight caching applications that benefit from low-latency local storage, though it is less optimal for heavy multi-threaded processing.

    Workload Profiles

    0.327Score
    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.
