      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated 64-core ARM64 server delivering top-tier memory bandwidth and balanced resources for high-throughput multi-threaded workloads.

      General Purpose

      The Amazon Web Services m8g.16xlarge is a general-purpose server powered by an ARM64 AWS Graviton Neoverse-V2 processor. It features 64 dedicated physical cores running at 2.8 GHz with a 1:1 thread-to-core ratio, paired with 256.0 GB of system memory. Operating on the AWS Nitro hypervisor, the server provides a 30 Gbps baseline network bandwidth but contains no local storage or GPU accelerators. Benchmark data highlights top-tier performance in memory bandwidth, multi-core processing, and database operations, alongside strong multi-threaded decompression and software compilation capabilities. Conversely, single-core metrics remain in the average tier. This hardware profile delivers qualitative cost efficiency through ARM-based resource density, making it highly suitable for multi-threaded workloads, database hosting, static web serving, and software development pipelines.

      Workload Profiles

      4.9Score
      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.
