Graviton cores are definitely not faster. The core frequencies are too low for heavy usage and I suspect that the caches are too small as well.
You can easily benchmark this by comparing the Graviton variants with the Intel specific instances.
Graviton 4 has also not been made available for EC2 and RDS instance types in most regions two years after release. My guess is that they are unable to scale production.
- otterley 2y agoGraviton 4 was just GAed 3 months ago. You need to run actual workloads that fully utilize all cores and not benchmarks to understand the value of Graviton. People don’t run benchmarks in production; they run real business applications. Graviton is optimized for horizontal scale, not straight line single core performance.
