CPU and System Topology
Server Description
A balanced general-purpose instance combining dedicated Intel Xeon processing with high-speed local NVMe SSD storage for single-threaded and database workloads.
Google Cloud Platform c4-standard-4-lssd is a general-purpose server instance featuring 4 dedicated vCPUs powered by an Intel Xeon 6985P-C processor at 2.3 GHz, 15 GB of RAM, and a bundled 402 GB local NVMe SSD. Built on the x86_64 architecture, it features 2 physical cores with hyper-threading and a large 504 MB L3 cache. Benchmark data highlights exceptional single-threaded performance, with top-tier results in Geekbench single-core tests, text processing, and single-threaded gzip compression. However, multi-core scaling and large-block memory write speeds are comparatively weaker. This hardware profile makes the instance highly suitable for static web serving, database operations, and single-threaded processing tasks that benefit from fast local storage, while offering a balanced resource-to-cost profile for general-purpose workloads.
