    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-optimized server featuring one terabyte of system memory, dedicated Intel Xeon processing, and local NVMe SSD storage.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    The Amazon Web Services x2iedn.8xlarge is a memory-optimized server powered by the Nitro hypervisor and an Intel Xeon 8375C processor. Operating on the x86_64 architecture, it delivers 32 vCPUs across 16 physical cores at 3.5 GHz. The hardware profile is defined by 1024.0 GB of DDR4 memory, providing a high density of 32.0 GB per core, alongside a bundled 950 GB NVMe SSD local instance store and 25 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. Benchmarks show average CPU and memory performance, with a Passmark CPU score of 36913.69 and 31.04 million Redis SET operations per second. However, without dedicated GPUs, LLM inference on large 70B models is poor, yielding only 2.49 tokens/sec for text generation. This instance is suited for memory-intensive databases, caching layers, and enterprise workloads requiring massive memory capacity.

    Workload Profiles

    1.76Score
    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.
