      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An AMD EPYC-powered instance featuring 8 vCPUs and 32 GB RAM, delivering strong single-core CPU speed for balanced compute workloads.

      Google Cloud Platform c3d-standard-8 is a compute-focused instance powered by a 4-core AMD EPYC 9B14 processor providing 8 dedicated vCPUs and 32 GB of RAM. Featuring advanced instruction support including AVX-512, AES, and SHA_NI, it lacks local storage and GPU hardware. Synthetic benchmarks highlight strong single-core CPU performance, ranking in the top quartile, alongside average multi-core execution, PassMark CPU, and static web serving capabilities reaching 10.45 GB/sec. A notable hardware tradeoff is lower uncached large-block memory bandwidth, which constrains performance in memory-bound applications like medium-scale LLM inference. Financially efficient as a balanced compute node without bundled storage costs, c3d-standard-8 is best suited for general web serving, Redis key-value workloads, software compilation, and standard application hosting.

      Workload Profiles

      0.51Score
      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.
