      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An x86_64 general-purpose instance featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processing, strong single-core performance, and balanced memory for standard enterprise workloads.

      General Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform c3d-standard-8 is a general-purpose instance configured with 8 vCPUs and 32 GB of RAM, running on an AMD EPYC 9B14 processor. Built on the x86_64 architecture, it provides 4 physical cores with hyperthreading and dedicated CPU allocation. The processor features a 32 MB L3 cache and supports AVX-512 and cryptographic instructions. Benchmark data indicates strong single-core CPU performance, though multi-core execution and database operations remain average. Uncached memory bandwidth is a notable bottleneck, registering weak read and write speeds. Lacking local storage and GPU accelerators, this instance is designed for standard workloads like web serving, Redis caching, and light application hosting, while showing poor suitability for medium-to-large language model inference.

      Workload Profiles

      0.511Score
      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.
