    Server Description

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

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    The Amazon Web Services m8id.4xlarge is a general-purpose instance featuring 16 vCPUs and 8 physical cores powered by an Intel Xeon 6975P-C processor running at 3.9 GHz. It is equipped with 64.0 GB of DDR5 memory operating at 7 GHz and 950 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Operating on the Nitro hypervisor, this x86_64 instance delivers strong single-core performance, highlighted by top-tier Geekbench single-core and text processing scores, alongside strong single-threaded gzip compression. The CPU features Advanced Matrix Extensions and AVX-512, which facilitate efficient local LLM text generation. With an 8 Gbps baseline network bandwidth, the m8id.4xlarge provides a balanced, resource-dense profile. It is highly suitable for database operations, static web serving, software compilation, and general-purpose enterprise applications that benefit from fast local instance storage.

    Workload Profiles

    1.64Score
    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.
