      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An entry-level, compute-focused instance with dedicated vCPUs for lightweight utility workloads and basic web serving.

      Compute OptimizedBurstable & Budget

      Google Cloud Platform e2-highcpu-2 is an entry-level, compute-focused instance featuring 2 vCPUs and 2.0 GB of RAM. Powered by an Intel Xeon x86_64 processor running at 2.2 GHz, this instance provides a dedicated CPU allocation with 1 physical core and 2 threads. It does not include local storage or GPU accelerators. Benchmark results indicate modest performance, with multi-core stress-ng and memory bandwidth metrics falling into the bottom 10% of tested hardware. The instance achieves a static web serving throughput of 1.39 GB/sec and a Redis SET performance of 1.34 million operations per second. Given its low memory-to-CPU ratio and entry-level performance profile, the e2-highcpu-2 is qualitatively cost-efficient for lightweight, non-memory-intensive workloads. It is best suited for basic web serving, small utility scripts, and development environments.

      Workload Profiles

      0.108Score
      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.
