    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A high-memory, storage-bundled instance featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processors and local NVMe SSDs for demanding database and analytical workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseCompute Optimized

    Google Cloud Platform c3d-highmem-60-lssd is a memory-optimized instance featuring 60 dedicated vCPUs from an AMD EPYC 9B14 processor, 480 GB of RAM, and 1608 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Operating on the x86_64 architecture, this server delivers strong multi-core CPU performance and high memory bandwidth for cached operations, placing it in the top 25% of benchmarks. It is highly optimized for database workloads, as evidenced by strong Redis and Passmark database scores. The combination of high memory density and fast local storage makes this instance an efficient choice for in-memory databases, data-intensive ETL processes, and software compilation, though the lack of a GPU limits its suitability for complex machine learning training.

    Performance

    Workload Profiles

    2.4Score
    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.
