c4d-highcpu-4 by Google Cloud Platform

A compute-optimized virtual machine featuring dedicated processors and a low memory-to-CPU ratio for compute-bound workloads.

Google Cloud Platform c4d-highcpu-4 is a compute-optimized virtual machine instance featuring 4 dedicated vCPUs on the x86_64 architecture. Configured with 7.0 GB of system memory, it provides a resource density of 1.75 GB of RAM per core, making it suitable for compute-heavy workloads with low memory requirements. The instance does not include bundled local storage or GPU accelerators, requiring external network-attached storage for data persistence. With dedicated CPU allocation, it ensures consistent processing performance without shared-core resource contention. This configuration is designed for workloads such as batch processing, web serving, and lightweight compilation tasks where CPU performance is prioritized over memory capacity.
