    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A compute-optimized server combining dedicated Intel Xeon processing power with high-speed local NVMe SSD storage for demanding database and transactional workloads.

    Compute OptimizedStorage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

    Google Cloud Platform c4-standard-48-lssd is a compute-optimized server configured with 48 vCPUs, 180 GB of RAM, and 2951 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. It is powered by an Intel Xeon 6985P-C processor with 24 physical cores, a 2.3 GHz clock speed, and a 504 MB L3 cache. The architecture supports advanced vector and matrix extensions (AVX-512 and AMX). Benchmarks indicate top-tier single-core performance, strong multi-core capabilities, and high memory bandwidth for cached small blocks. The instance excels in database operations, software compilation, and CPU-based machine learning inference, particularly for smaller models. With its high-speed local storage and dedicated CPU allocation, it is well-suited for high-throughput transactional databases, web serving, and data processing workloads that require fast local disk access without the need for discrete GPU acceleration.

    Workload Profiles

    3.9Score
    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.
