      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-density memory instance featuring fifty-six virtual cores and top-tier memory bandwidth for demanding database and multi-threaded enterprise workloads.

      Memory OptimizedCompute Optimized

      Google Cloud Platform c2d-highmem-56 is a memory-optimized server instance featuring 56 vCPUs and 448.0 GB of RAM, powered by an AMD EPYC 7B13 processor on the x86_64 architecture. With 28 physical cores and a dedicated CPU allocation, it delivers a high memory-to-core ratio of 8.0 GB per core. The instance lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Benchmark data highlights top-tier memory performance, with a Passmark memory score in the top 10% and strong multi-core processing capabilities in the top 25%. It performs exceptionally well in software compilation, database operations, and small-to-medium LLM inference tasks. This configuration represents a highly efficient option for memory-intensive enterprise workloads that do not require local NVMe storage.

      Workload Profiles

      2.1Score
      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.
