    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An accelerated architecture combining dedicated Intel Xeon processors with an NVIDIA L4 GPU for efficient machine learning inference and graphics workloads.

    GPU AcceleratedGeneral Purpose

    Google Cloud Platform g2-standard-32 is a graphics-optimized server featuring 32 dedicated Intel Xeon vCPUs (16 physical cores) operating at 2.2 GHz and 128.0 GB of RAM. The hardware configuration includes a single NVIDIA L4 GPU with 22 GB of VRAM based on the Ada Lovelace architecture, while local storage is absent. Performance benchmarks indicate a clear division: single-core CPU execution and text processing are relatively weak, whereas multi-core operations and memory bandwidth perform at average levels. Most notably, the server delivers top-tier performance in LLM inference for small and medium models, processing prompts for a 7B model at 2,231.74 tokens per second. This profile makes the instance highly efficient for GPU-accelerated workloads like machine learning inference, image processing, and ray tracing, rather than general single-threaded CPU tasks.

    Workload Profiles

    1.16Score
    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.
