      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A balanced general-purpose instance featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processing, DDR5 memory, and advanced instruction sets for single-threaded workloads.

      General Purpose

      Amazon Web Services m7i.xlarge is a general-purpose instance featuring 4 vCPUs and 16.0 GB of DDR5 memory. Powered by a dedicated Intel Xeon 8488C processor running at 3.2 GHz on the Nitro hypervisor, it includes advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and AMX. The instance lacks local storage and GPUs, relying on a baseline network bandwidth of 2 Gbps. Performance benchmarks reveal strong single-core capabilities, with high Geekbench single-core and single-threaded gzip compression scores. However, multi-core performance and memory bandwidth represent notable tradeoffs, scoring in the lower percentiles. This profile makes the m7i.xlarge qualitatively cost-efficient for workloads such as static web serving, text processing, and small-scale LLM inference, while being less suited for memory-intensive database operations or parallelized multi-threaded tasks.

      Workload Profiles

      0.484Score
      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.
