    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An x86_64 server combining high memory density, dedicated Intel Xeon processing, and fast local NVMe SSD storage for demanding database workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

    Google Cloud Platform c4-highmem-48-lssd is an x86_64 server configured with 48 dedicated vCPUs (24 physical cores) utilizing the Intel Xeon 6985P-C processor running at 2.3 GHz. It features 372.0 GB of RAM, translating to 7.75 GB per vCPU, and includes 2951 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. The processor supports advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and Intel AMX, contributing to strong performance in cryptographic, mathematical, and database operations. Benchmarks highlight top-tier single-core capabilities, with a Geekbench single-core score of 2308.0, and strong multi-core throughput, including a Passmark CPU score of 70422.1. Memory performance is notable, with cached read bandwidth reaching 3863.56 GB/sec. This server is optimized for memory-intensive workloads, high-throughput database operations, software compilation, and local machine learning inference.

    Workload Profiles

    3.87Score
    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.
