Server Description
A compute-optimized virtual server featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and advanced matrix extensions for high-throughput CPU-bound workloads.
Google Cloud Platform c4-highcpu-24 is a compute-optimized virtual machine instance configured with 24 dedicated vCPUs and 48 GB of RAM, establishing a 1:2 vCPU-to-RAM ratio. Built on the x86_64 architecture, it is powered by an Intel Xeon 8581C processor operating at 2.3 GHz with 12 physical cores and a 260 MB L3 cache. The hardware supports advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and Intel AMX for matrix operations. Benchmarks reveal strong single-core performance, particularly in text and image processing, alongside top-tier text generation speeds for small LLM models. Lacking local storage and GPU accelerators, this instance offers qualitative cost efficiency for compute-bound tasks by minimizing memory overhead. It is well-suited for software compilation, text processing, and CPU-based machine learning inference.
