      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-core x86_64 compute instance featuring advanced matrix extensions for parallel processing, multi-threaded workloads, and CPU-based inference.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform c4-standard-96 is an x86_64 compute-focused instance featuring 96 vCPUs and 360 GB of RAM, powered by a 2.3 GHz Intel Xeon 8581C processor with 48 physical cores. Lacking local storage and GPUs, it relies entirely on network-attached resources. The instance delivers strong multi-core performance, particularly in cryptographic execution, multi-threaded decompression, and image processing, supported by Intel AMX and AVX-512 instruction sets. While single-core performance and overall memory scores are average, its high parallel processing capacity makes it highly efficient for multi-threaded workloads. It is well-suited for software compilation, database operations, static web serving, and CPU-based LLM prompt processing.

      Workload Profiles

      4.66Score
      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.
