    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An x86_64 server combining high memory density and local NVMe SSD storage for memory-intensive database and caching workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    The Google Cloud Platform c3d-highmem-30-lssd is a memory-optimized server featuring 30 dedicated vCPUs from an AMD EPYC 9B14 processor and 240.0 GB of RAM, yielding 8.0 GB per core. It includes 804 GB of local NVMe SSD storage but lacks GPU acceleration. Performance benchmarks show strong single-core CPU capabilities and a strong PassMark memory score, though large-block memory write bandwidth is weak at 25.09 GB/sec. Multi-core performance, database operations, and Redis throughput fall within the average tier. This hardware profile is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-heavy applications requiring fast local storage, making it suitable for database hosting, in-memory caching, and small-scale language model inference.

    Workload Profiles

    1.4Score
    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.
