      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-density, memory-optimized server featuring 144 dedicated vCPUs and advanced matrix extensions for demanding database and multi-threaded enterprise workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform c4-highmem-144 is an x86_64 server instance powered by an Intel Xeon 6985P-C processor, delivering 144 dedicated vCPUs across 72 physical cores and 1116.0 GB of RAM. Lacking local storage and GPU accelerators, this instance focuses entirely on high-density memory and compute performance. It features a 504 MB L3 cache and supports advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and Intel AMX. Benchmarks show top-tier multi-core CPU performance and memory bandwidth, alongside exceptional database operations and LLM inference capabilities, though single-core performance is average. This profile makes the instance highly cost-efficient for memory-intensive, highly parallel workloads such as large-scale database hosting, Redis deployments, and multi-threaded software compilation.

      Workload Profiles

      7.73Score
      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.
