    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A high-capacity x86_64 server combining eighty-eight dedicated vCPUs with over six terabytes of local NVMe SSD storage for parallel workloads.

    Storage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

    Google Cloud Platform c3-standard-88-lssd is a general-purpose server featuring 88 dedicated vCPUs from an Intel Xeon 8481C processor running at 2.7 GHz, paired with 352 GB of RAM. It includes a substantial local storage configuration of 6432 GB across 16 NVMe SSDs, while omitting GPU hardware. Benchmarks indicate strong multi-core capabilities, with a stress-ng multi-core score of 73268.7 and a Passmark CPU score of 73489.6. Memory performance is robust, showing uncached read bandwidth of 224.79 GB/sec. The server delivers top-tier performance in image processing and prompt processing for small language models, alongside strong database operations at 29774.57 on Passmark. This hardware profile is optimized for workloads requiring high-speed local storage and significant parallel processing, such as database systems, software compilation, and CPU-based inference.

    Workload Profiles

    3.89Score
    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.
