      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      Compute-optimized architecture delivering strong single-core performance with dedicated AMD EPYC processors and a compact memory footprint for targeted processing tasks.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform c2d-highcpu-8 is a compute-optimized instance powered by a dedicated AMD EPYC 7B13 processor utilizing x86_64 architecture. Configured with 8 vCPUs across 4 physical cores and 16.0 GB of RAM, it maintains a 1:2 vCPU-to-memory ratio suitable for compute-bound tasks. The CPU features 32 MB of L3 cache alongside instruction sets including AVX, AES, VAES, and FMA, while omitting attached local storage and discrete GPUs. Benchmark results highlight strong single-core CPU performance alongside average multi-core CPU, memory bandwidth, and web serving throughput. A slight tradeoff appears in multi-threaded bzip3 decompression, which benchmarks in the lower tier. Overall, c2d-highcpu-8 offers a balanced execution environment for CPU-intensive tasks such as software compilation, static web delivery, redis key-value processing, and small-scale model inference where lower memory per vCPU is required.

      Workload Profiles

      0.49Score
      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.
