      Server Description

      An ARM64 memory-optimized virtual machine offering a high memory-to-vCPU ratio for caching and lightweight database workloads.

      Memory Optimized

      Amazon Web Services r6g.large is a memory-optimized instance powered by the AWS Nitro System and custom 64-bit ARM Graviton processors. It features 2 dedicated physical cores (2 vCPUs) running at 2.5 GHz on the Neoverse-N1 microarchitecture, paired with 16.0 GB of system memory. This configuration provides a high memory-to-core ratio of 8.0 GB per vCPU. The instance does not include local storage or GPU accelerators, and it provides a baseline network bandwidth of 1 Gbps. Benchmark data shows average single-core CPU performance with a stress-ng score of 1519.48, but weaker multi-core and memory bandwidth results, such as a Geekbench multi-core score of 1706.0. Qualitatively, the r6g.large offers a cost-efficient memory footprint for ARM-compatible workloads. It is best suited for memory-intensive tasks with moderate compute requirements, including caching layers, small database operations, and lightweight web serving.

      Workload Profiles

      0.187Score
      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.
