    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An AMD EPYC-powered memory-optimized server with dedicated vCPUs and local NVMe storage for memory-intensive database and caching workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

    Google Cloud Platform c3d-highmem-16-lssd is an x86_64 memory-optimized server powered by an AMD EPYC 9B14 processor. It features 16 dedicated vCPUs across 8 physical cores, 128 GB of RAM, and a 402 GB local NVMe SSD. While single-core CPU performance and text processing benchmarks are strong, large-block uncached memory bandwidth is a notable bottleneck, scoring in the lower percentiles. This server provides a high memory-to-vCPU ratio of 8 GB per core, making it a resource-dense option for memory-bound applications. It is best suited for databases, in-memory caching, and text processing workloads.

    Workload Profiles

    0.85Score
    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.
