      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated x86_64 compute platform with balanced memory allocation, optimized for general-purpose workloads, databases, and software compilation.

      General PurposeCompute Optimized

      Google Cloud Platform c3-standard-22 is an x86_64 general-purpose server featuring 22 dedicated vCPUs and 88.0 GB of RAM, powered by an Intel Xeon 8481C processor running at 2.7 GHz. The instance lacks local storage and GPU accelerators, making it a streamlined option for compute-focused tasks. Performance benchmarks generally fall within the average tier, with a Geekbench multi-core score of 12159.0 and a Passmark CPU score of 27864.91. Notably, it exhibits strong performance in text generation for small LLM models, achieving 296.59 tokens/sec. The instance is qualitatively cost-efficient for workloads requiring dedicated CPU resources without local storage overhead, making it highly suitable for software compilation, database operations, static web serving, and general-purpose enterprise applications.

      Workload Profiles

      1.3Score
      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.
