      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A single-core ARMv9 instance delivering strong single-threaded performance and dedicated resources for lightweight utility workloads.

      General Purpose

      Amazon Web Services m9g.medium is a general-purpose instance featuring a single dedicated ARMv9 Neoverse-V3 core running at 3.3 GHz and 4.0 GB of RAM. Operating on the AWS Nitro hypervisor, it provides a baseline network speed of 1 Gbps with no local storage or GPU. Benchmarks show top-tier single-core performance, highlighted by a Geekbench single-core score of 2239.0 and strong single-threaded gzip compression. However, its single-vCPU configuration leads to poor multi-core and parallel processing metrics, including weak software compilation and database performance. Qualitatively, the m9g.medium serves as a cost-efficient entry point for dedicated ARM resources, making it suitable for lightweight, single-threaded workloads, basic text processing, and simple utility tasks rather than parallelized or memory-intensive applications.

      Workload Profiles

      0.29Score
      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.
