    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A high-density memory and storage platform featuring 144 vCPUs, 1.1 TB RAM, and 9.3 TB of local NVMe SSDs for demanding enterprise databases.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseCompute Optimized

    Google Cloud Platform c4-highmem-144-lssd is a high-density, memory-optimized server configured with 144 dedicated vCPUs across 72 physical cores of an Intel Xeon 6985P-C processor. Operating at 2.3 GHz, the system features 1116 GB of RAM and 9383 GB of local NVMe SSD storage across 24 drives. While lacking dedicated GPUs, the CPU supports Advanced Matrix Extensions (AMX) and AVX-512 for hardware-accelerated vector and matrix operations. Benchmarks show top-tier multi-core CPU performance, exceptional memory bandwidth, and superior database throughput, although single-core performance remains average. This instance is highly suited for large-scale databases, high-throughput Redis caching, and memory-intensive enterprise workloads.

    Workload Profiles

    8.1Score
    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.
