      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-density compute instance featuring 88 vCPUs and advanced Intel instruction sets for demanding multi-core workloads and parallel processing.

      Compute Optimized

      The Google Cloud Platform c3-highcpu-88 is an x86_64 compute-optimized server configured with 88 vCPUs and 176 GB of RAM. Powered by an Intel Xeon 8481C processor running at 2.7 GHz across 44 physical cores, it features a 105 MB L3 cache and supports advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and Intel AMX. This instance does not include local storage or GPUs. Benchmark results show strong multi-core CPU performance, high memory bandwidth, and top-tier image processing capabilities. It delivers strong throughput for database operations, static web serving, and LLM prompt processing. The 1:2 vCPU-to-RAM ratio makes this instance highly cost-efficient for compute-heavy, memory-lean workloads such as software compilation, cryptography, and high-throughput web serving.

      Workload Profiles

      3.91Score
      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.
