      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated dual-core x86_64 compute instance offering strong single-threaded performance for lightweight workloads, basic web serving, and simple text processing.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform c2d-highcpu-2 is an x86_64 compute-optimized virtual machine featuring 2 vCPUs and 4.0 GB of RAM, powered by an AMD EPYC 7B13 processor. This instance provides dedicated CPU allocation with 1 physical core and 2 threads, but lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Benchmarks indicate strong single-core CPU performance, ranking in the top 25% for stress-ng single-core tests, alongside average single-threaded compression and text processing speeds. However, it exhibits weak multi-core performance and poor memory bandwidth. Given its low memory-to-vCPU ratio, the instance represents a budget-friendly option for dedicated compute resources, though it faces clear performance tradeoffs under multi-threaded or memory-bound conditions. It is best suited for lightweight single-threaded applications, basic web serving, and simple text processing workloads.

      Workload Profiles

      0.167Score
      Precomputed compound score for Cache Intensive workloads. A weighted average (geometric mean) of benchmark scores compared to their medians: score = ∏ (x_i / m_i)^(w_i / Σw). The score of 1.0 represents a synthetic baseline server with the median performance of each component benchmark; 0.5 means roughly half the performance; and 2.0 means twice the performance of that reference profile. Component weights: 50% Redis RPS (pipeline=1, SET), 20% Redis RPS (pipeline=16, SET), 10% PassMark Memory Mark (composite), 10% Memory bandwidth (read, 16 MB ~ L3), 10% PassMark single-thread CPU. Rationale for component selection: In-memory key-value store workload, mixing direct Redis performance metrics with memory speed and latency benchmarks, and single-core CPU performance profiles.
