RISC-V Performance On Ubuntu 24.04 LTS With Scaleway's EM-RV1
Recently I've been testing out the Scaleway's Elastic Metal RV1 (EM-RV1) RISC-V cloud servers.
The T-Head 1520 RISC-V SoC is paired with 16GB of LPDDR5 memory and 128GB of eMMC storage and 100 Mbit/s network connectivity. In the next few weeks will be some benchmarks showing how the EM-RV1-C4M16S128-A compare against some other x86_64 and Arm cloud instance types, but again with just four cores at under 2GHz, don't get too worked up over the performance potential. So due to the same kernel does temper the expectations for performance benefits of Ubuntu 24.04 on this RISC-V cloud server.
