    Server Description

    A general-purpose instance combining dedicated Intel Xeon processors, high-speed DDR5 memory, and high-capacity local NVMe SSD storage.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services m8id.12xlarge is a general-purpose instance featuring 48 vCPUs, 24 physical Intel Xeon 6975P-C cores, and 192 GB of 7 GHz DDR5 memory. Operating on the AWS Nitro hypervisor, it integrates 2850 GB of local NVMe SSD instance storage and a 22 Gbps baseline network interface. The processor supports advanced instruction sets including AVX-512 and Intel AMX, contributing to top-tier performance in single-core execution, image processing, and text processing benchmarks. Memory bandwidth is highly efficient, with cached read speeds reaching 3830.37 GB/sec. This hardware profile delivers qualitative cost efficiency for resource-dense workloads by bundling high-capacity local storage with balanced compute and memory. The instance is optimized for database operations, static web serving, software compilation, and CPU-based LLM inference.

    Workload Profiles

    3.8Score
    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.
