      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A memory-optimized x86_64 server featuring 248 GB RAM and Intel Xeon processors, built for memory-intensive databases and data processing.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform c4-highmem-32 is an x86_64 memory-optimized server instance configured with 32 vCPUs and 248 GB of RAM. Powered by a 2.3 GHz Intel Xeon 8581C processor with 16 physical cores, it features a substantial 260 MB L3 cache and supports advanced instruction sets such as AVX-512 and Intel AMX. The instance lacks local storage and dedicated GPUs. Benchmark results show strong performance in single-threaded gzip compression (30.35 GB/sec), multi-threaded bzip3 decompression (187.69 GB/sec), and small-model LLM text generation (421.19 tokens/sec). However, performance drops significantly for large-scale LLM inference, with 70B model text generation falling to 2.38 tokens/sec. This instance is highly suitable for memory-intensive database operations, static web serving, and moderate data processing workloads that benefit from a high memory-to-vCPU ratio of 7.75 GB per core.
