      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-density, compute-optimized virtual machine delivering top-tier multi-core performance and advanced matrix extensions for highly parallelized enterprise workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform c4-highcpu-288 is a compute-optimized instance featuring 288 vCPUs and 576 GB of RAM, powered by a 2.3 GHz Intel Xeon 6985P-C processor with 144 physical cores. It utilizes the x86_64 architecture and includes advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and Intel AMX. The instance lacks local storage and GPUs. Benchmark data highlights top-tier multi-core performance, with a stress-ng multi-core score of 312098.53 and a PassMark CPU score of 177439.07. It delivers exceptional memory bandwidth, reaching 1088.77 GB/sec for uncached large block reads, and excels in parallel tasks like software compilation and database operations. While single-core performance is average, its massive core density makes it highly cost-efficient for highly parallelized enterprise workloads, static web serving, and LLM prompt processing.

      Workload Profiles

      13.5Score
      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.
