    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A high-density x86_64 server combining 144 vCPUs, over one terabyte of RAM, and nine terabytes of local NVMe storage.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseCompute Optimized

    Google Cloud Platform c4-highmem-144-lssd is an x86_64 server featuring 144 vCPUs (72 physical cores) on an Intel Xeon 6985P-C processor, 1116.0 GB of RAM, and 9383 GB of local NVMe SSD storage across 24 drives. It lacks GPU accelerators. Benchmarks show top-tier multi-core CPU performance, with a PassMark CPU score of 134,938.22, and exceptional memory bandwidth, reaching 11,519.35 GB/sec for cached reads. Database operations are highly efficient, yielding 219.47 million Redis SET operations per second. Qualitatively, the server provides high resource density by bundling massive memory and local storage, though single-core performance remains average. This configuration is optimized for large-scale databases, in-memory caching, and CPU-based LLM inference.

    Workload Profiles

    8.23Score
    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.
