    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.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    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.

    Workload Profiles

    0.61Score
    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.
