If you are interested, this paper [1] has some price/performance numbers for a few of the EC2 instance types marketed for analytics workloads. To get just CPU performance/$, you could normalize the microbenchmark results (Fig. 2) by hourly price. It's not comprehensive but could give a general idea of what to expect.<br /><br />-Andrew<br /><br />[1] http://cs.brown.edu/people/acrotty/pubs/918400a732.pdfAndrew Crottyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13755545527042685803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8891884956165580080.post-51076992667285518282021-07-05T16:20:43.768+02:002021-07-05T16:20:43.768+02:00The question is how do you measure performance? Wh...The question is how do you measure performance? Which benchmark to use? I sidestepped these issues by only showing Intel CPUs, which are close enough. But it would certainly be interesting to compare all instances on some CPU benchmark.Viktor Leishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09732217689829100056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8891884956165580080.post-21606119554510449812021-07-04T21:47:02.810+02:002021-07-04T21:47:02.810+02:00Thank you for the post.
