Those wanting to see the raw results and price-performance across the dozens of benchmarks I have carried out so far can see this OpenBenchmarking.org result page.

When taking the geometric mean across all the raw performance benchmarks carried out on both the Graviton2 and Graviton3 instances, the c7g.4xlarge came out to being about 42% faster than the c6g.4xlarge instance type.

From my testing thus far the initial benchmarks are showing Graviton3 to offer terrific generational improvements over Graviton2. It will be especially interesting though to see how the Graviton3 performance stacks up to the Intel and AMD instance types, so stay tuned for that follow-up comparison in the coming days. That comparison will also feature an expanded selection of Linux benchmarks.
