      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-density memory and massive multi-core compute instance designed for demanding in-memory databases and parallelized enterprise workloads.

      Memory OptimizedCompute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform c4-highmem-192 is a memory-optimized server featuring 192 dedicated vCPUs and 1488 GB of RAM, powered by an Intel Xeon 8581C processor. Built on the x86_64 architecture, this instance delivers top-tier multi-core performance, ranking in the top 10% for multi-threaded bzip3 decompression, Passmark CPU tests, and Redis SET operations. The processor supports advanced instruction sets like Intel AMX and AVX-512, facilitating strong performance in software compilation and LLM inference. However, single-core performance and overall memory scores fall into the average tier. Lacking local storage and GPUs, the instance relies on network-attached storage. It is highly suited for large-scale in-memory databases, parallelized enterprise workloads, and CPU-based machine learning tasks.

      Workload Profiles

      7.9Score
      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.
