      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A compute-optimized virtual machine delivering exceptional single-core performance and dedicated AMD EPYC processing for CPU-intensive workloads.

      Compute Optimized

      Google Cloud Platform c4d-highcpu-16 is a compute-optimized virtual machine featuring 16 dedicated vCPUs and 30.0 GB of RAM, powered by an AMD EPYC 9B45 processor. Built on the x86_64 architecture, it includes 8 physical cores and supports advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and SHA_NI. The instance does not include local storage or GPU accelerators. Performance benchmarks highlight exceptional single-core execution, with top-tier results in single-threaded compression, text processing, and small-model LLM text generation. Conversely, multi-core performance and memory bandwidth remain in the average tier. This hardware profile delivers qualitative cost efficiency for compute-heavy, memory-light workloads. It is highly suited for single-threaded processing, text and image manipulation, and lightweight inference tasks.

      Workload Profiles

      1.6Score
      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.
