      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated compute-optimized instance featuring advanced matrix extensions and high-throughput processing for demanding CPU-bound workloads.

      Compute Optimized

      Google Cloud Platform c4n-highcpu-48 is an x86_64 compute-optimized server featuring 48 dedicated vCPUs (24 physical cores) powered by an Intel Xeon 8581C processor running at 2.3 GHz. It is configured with 96 GB of RAM, a 260 MB L3 cache, and lacks local storage or GPUs. The instance demonstrates strong performance in multi-threaded decompression, database operations, and static web serving, alongside top-tier text generation speeds for small-model LLM inference due to built-in AMX and AVX-512 instruction support. However, its 2.0 GB of RAM per core represents a tradeoff for memory-bound applications. Qualitatively, it provides high compute density for CPU-intensive tasks, making it suitable for cryptography, web serving, and lightweight machine learning inference.

      Workload Profiles

      2.87Score
      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.
