      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-density bare-metal server delivering exceptional multi-core performance and DDR5 memory bandwidth for demanding enterprise workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform c3-standard-192-metal is a bare-metal, compute-optimized server powered by 192 vCPUs (96 physical Intel Xeon 8481C cores) running at 4.0 GHz on the x86_64 architecture. It features 768 GB of high-speed 5 GHz DDR5 memory, though it lacks local storage and dedicated GPUs. Benchmarks indicate top-tier multi-core CPU performance and memory bandwidth, alongside exceptional throughput for database operations, Redis SET operations, and static web serving. The processor supports advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and Intel AMX, which drive strong performance in CPU-based LLM inference and software compilation. This bare-metal instance is highly efficient for high-density compute workloads, large-scale database hosting, and high-throughput web serving where direct hardware access is required.

      Workload Profiles

      7.32Score
      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.
