      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-memory x86_64 server featuring ninety-six virtual CPUs and advanced matrix extensions for memory-intensive enterprise workloads and database operations.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral PurposeCompute Optimized

      Google Cloud Platform c4-highmem-96 is an x86_64 server instance featuring 96 vCPUs and 744 GB of RAM, powered by an Intel Xeon 8581C processor running at 2.3 GHz. With 48 physical cores and hyperthreading, it delivers strong multi-core performance, as evidenced by a Geekbench multi-core score of 21,073.0 and a stress-ng multi-core CPU score of 82,697.57. The architecture includes AVX-512 and AMX extensions, enabling efficient cryptographic and matrix operations, including medium-model LLM prompt processing at 297.98 tokens/sec. Lacking local storage and dedicated GPUs, this instance optimizes cost efficiency for memory-heavy workloads by avoiding bundled hardware overhead. It is suited for large-scale database operations, software compilation, memory-intensive enterprise applications, and CPU-based machine learning inference.

      Workload Profiles

      4.73Score
      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.
