      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A compute-optimized x86_64 server featuring thirty-two dedicated vCPUs and advanced matrix extensions for high-throughput text and data processing.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform c4-highcpu-32 is an x86_64 compute-optimized server featuring 32 dedicated vCPUs and 64 GB of RAM, powered by an Intel Xeon 8581C processor running at 2.3 GHz. With 16 physical cores and a 260 MB L3 cache, this instance is tailored for compute-intensive workloads. It lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Benchmark data shows top-tier performance in text processing and small-model LLM text generation, alongside strong results in data decompression and image processing. Standard operations, including Redis SET and Passmark CPU tests, perform at average levels. The 1:2 vCPU-to-RAM ratio offers qualitative cost efficiency for CPU-bound tasks, making this instance highly suitable for web serving, text processing, and CPU-based machine learning inference.

      Workload Profiles

      2.2Score
      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.
