      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-density, x86_64 server featuring 88 dedicated vCPUs and advanced matrix extensions for parallelized enterprise workloads and CPU-based inference.

      General PurposeCompute Optimized

      Google Cloud Platform c3-standard-88 is an x86_64 architecture server instance configured with 88 vCPUs across 44 physical Intel Xeon 8481C cores and 352.0 GB of dedicated RAM. Operating at 2.7 GHz, the processor supports advanced instruction sets including AVX-512 and Intel AMX. Benchmarks indicate strong multi-core CPU performance, placing in the top 25% for multi-core stress-ng and PassMark tests, alongside top 10% performance in image processing. Memory bandwidth is highly efficient, scoring in the top 25% for both cached and uncached read/write operations. The instance lacks local storage and GPU accelerators, presenting a tradeoff for storage-heavy or GPU-dependent tasks. It is qualitatively cost-efficient for highly parallelized workloads, making it suitable for software compilation, static web serving, database operations, and CPU-based machine learning inference.

      Workload Profiles

      3.8Score
      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.
