      Server Description

      A compute-optimized virtual server featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and advanced matrix extensions for high-throughput CPU-bound workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      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.

      Workload Profiles

      1.8Score
      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.
