    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An ARMv9-powered general-purpose instance featuring dedicated physical cores and high-speed local NVMe SSD storage for balanced workloads.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Amazon Web Services m9gd.4xlarge is a general-purpose instance powered by a dedicated 16-core AWS Graviton ARMv9 Neoverse-V3 processor running at 3.3 GHz. It features 64.0 GB of RAM and a bundled 950 GB local NVMe SSD instance store, supported by an 8 Gbps baseline network speed. In benchmark testing, the instance demonstrates top-tier single-core CPU and memory performance, alongside strong database operations and static web serving throughput. The arm64 architecture provides high resource density and qualitative cost efficiency for compatible workloads, though it lacks x86-specific instruction sets like AVX and AMX. This instance is suited for database hosting, web serving, software compilation, and text processing applications.

    Workload Profiles

    2.5Score
    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.
