      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A balanced general-purpose virtual machine featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processing, steady multi-core performance, and a standard memory-to-vCPU ratio.

      General Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform e2-standard-16 is a general-purpose instance featuring 16 vCPUs and 64 GB of RAM, powered by an AMD EPYC 7B12 processor on the x86_64 architecture. It provides 8 physical cores with dedicated CPU allocation, 16 MB of L3 cache, and lacks local storage or GPU accelerators. Performance benchmarks place the instance in the middle 50% for most multi-core and memory operations, though its single-core stress-ng CPU performance ranks in the top 25% at 2678.78. Memory bandwidth reaches 113.16 GB/sec for large block reads, and Redis SET operations perform at 10.37 million operations per second. Lacking AVX-512 support, this instance represents a balanced, cost-efficient option for steady-state workloads. It is suited for general-purpose applications, including static web serving, software compilation, and standard database operations.

      Workload Profiles

      0.63Score
      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.
