    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An x86 server combining high memory density, fast local NVMe storage, and advanced matrix extensions for data-intensive workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

    The Google Cloud Platform c4-highmem-24-lssd is an x86_64 server featuring 24 dedicated vCPUs from an Intel Xeon 6985P-C processor, 186 GB of RAM, and 1343 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Operating at 2.3 GHz with a 504 MB L3 cache, the processor supports AVX-512 and Intel AMX instructions. Benchmark data highlights top-tier single-threaded performance, with gzip compression at 36.68 GB/sec and Geekbench single-core scores in the top 10%. Multi-core and image processing capabilities rank in the top 25%, while large-block memory write bandwidth remains average at 56.59 GB/sec. This resource profile, combining high memory density with fast local storage, makes the instance suitable for database operations, text processing pipelines, and small-scale machine learning inference.

    Workload Profiles

    2.25Score
    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.
