    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An ARM64-powered instance combining dedicated Neoverse-V2 cores with high-speed local NVMe storage for demanding database and memory-intensive workloads.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Google Cloud Platform c4a-standard-32-lssd is an ARM64-based general-purpose instance featuring 32 dedicated physical cores on the ARMv8 Neoverse-V2 processor clocked at 3.0 GHz. It is configured with 128 GB of RAM and 2412 GB of local NVMe SSD storage, with no GPU acceleration. The instance delivers top-tier performance in database operations and memory benchmarks, alongside strong multi-core processing capabilities. It achieves high memory bandwidth, reaching 3959.92 GB/sec for cached small blocks, and excels in Redis SET operations and static web serving. This combination of dedicated ARM cores and fast local storage provides a cost-efficient profile for database hosting, software compilation, and high-throughput web applications.

    Workload Profiles

    2.63Score
    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.
