      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A balanced general-purpose cloud instance featuring dedicated AMD EPYC core execution with strong single-threaded performance and AVX-512 vector extensions.

      General Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform c3d-standard-4 is a general-purpose virtual machine equipped with 4 dedicated vCPUs from an AMD EPYC 9B14 processor (2 physical cores with 2 threads per core) and 16 GB of RAM. Featuring x86_64 architecture with AVX-512 instruction support, the instance delivers strong single-core CPU benchmark performance in the top 25% range. However, multi-core scaling and uncached memory bandwidth show notable performance trade-offs, placing in the bottom 25% across multi-threaded synthetic tests. The system contains no local disk storage or GPU hardware. Given its balanced 1:4 vCPU-to-memory ratio, c3d-standard-4 offers cost-effective execution for single-threaded processing tasks, lightweight web serving, and basic general-purpose compute workloads that do not demand high memory throughput or heavy concurrent execution.

      Performance

      Workload Profiles

      0.32Score
      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.
