      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      Lightweight entry-level compute instance featuring dedicated AMD EPYC cores with strong single-threaded performance and a two-to-one memory-to-vCPU ratio.

      Compute Optimized

      Google Cloud Platform c2d-highcpu-2 is a compute-optimized instance equipped with 2 vCPUs across 1 physical AMD EPYC 7B13 core and 4.0 GB of memory. Operating on the x86_64 architecture with dedicated CPU allocation, it includes 32 MB of L3 cache alongside support for AVX, AES, and SHA_NI instruction sets. The instance includes no attached local storage or GPUs. Performance testing demonstrates strong single-core CPU throughput, though overall multi-core performance and memory bandwidth remain in lower percentiles due to the 2 vCPU limit and 4 GB RAM ceiling. PassMark memory and database operation scores reflect low total system throughput. The c2d-highcpu-2 offers a entry-level footprint suitable for single-threaded processing, small utility tasks, basic web serving, and low-concurrency microservices.

      Workload Profiles

      0.17Score
      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.
