r6id.large
3rd generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors (Ice Lake) with an all-core turbo frequency of 3.5 GHz Memory-optimized instance (R) that includes up to 7.6 TB of local NVMe-based SSD block-level storage (d). They offer up to 50 Gbps networking speed, 40 Gbps of Amazon EBS bandwidth, and include always-on memory encryption using Intel Total Memory Encryption (TME). They are built on the AWS Nitro System
ec2 instance family: r6id
What the family is built for, the silicon underneath, and how to ask RunsOn for it.

availability & price by region
Spot is the average price RunsOn pays in your own AWS account — no per-minute markup. The bar shows how far under on-demand each region runs; the badge is the observed spot-interruption frequency.
Spot prices are trailing averages per region and move with the market. On-demand is the list reference. Interrupt frequency is AWS's published spot-advisor band for this instance type.
about these benchmarks
CPU is the Passmark single-thread metric, run on a live r6id.large instance and averaged over many days so a single noisy run can't skew the score.
Pricing is normalized to the hourly rate AWS bills, then shown per region. Spot is the trailing average; savings is measured against the same region's on-demand list price.
This instance is launched the exact same way any RunsOn job launches it — ephemeral EC2 in your account, one CloudFormation stack, nothing to babysit.
run r6id.large in your own account.
The benchmark runs on the same RunsOn anyone can deploy. One CloudFormation stack, your AWS account, ~10 minutes.
