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.
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.
