      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A balanced general-purpose instance featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processors, strong single-core performance, and standard memory allocation.

      General Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform c3d-standard-4 is a general-purpose server instance featuring 4 dedicated vCPUs and 16.0 GB of RAM, powered by an AMD EPYC 9B14 processor. Built on the x86_64 architecture, it provides 2 physical cores with hyper-threading and supports advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and AES cryptography. The instance does not include local storage or GPU accelerators. Benchmark data shows strong single-core CPU performance, though multi-core scaling, database operations, and memory bandwidth fall into the lower performance tiers. It handles single-threaded tasks and small-scale language models with average efficiency. This configuration is best suited for general-purpose workloads, single-threaded applications, and light web serving where high-throughput multi-core processing is not a primary requirement.

      Workload Profiles

      0.319Score
      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.
