    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-optimized x86_64 server featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors, high-capacity RAM, and fast local NVMe SSD storage for demanding data workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

    Google Cloud Platform c4-highmem-16-lssd is a memory-optimized instance configured with 16 dedicated vCPUs, 124 GB of RAM, and 539 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Powered by an Intel Xeon 6985P-C processor with an x86_64 architecture and a 504 MB L3 cache, this server delivers strong single-core performance. Benchmarks highlight top-tier capabilities in single-threaded gzip compression, bzip3 decompression, and text processing, alongside high-speed text generation for small language models. While multi-core and database benchmarks remain in the average tier, the instance's high memory-to-vCPU ratio and fast local storage provide a cost-effective platform for memory-heavy applications. It is well-suited for database hosting, caching layers, text processing, and lightweight inference workloads.
