      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-density memory-optimized instance featuring 160 dedicated vCPUs and 3.8 TB of RAM for massive in-memory database workloads.

      Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

      Google Cloud Platform m1-ultramem-160 is an x86_64 memory-optimized server designed for massive memory-bound workloads. It features 160 dedicated vCPUs across 80 physical Intel Xeon cores running at 2.2 GHz, paired with an extensive 3844 GB of RAM. The instance does not include local storage or GPUs. Benchmarks show a clear trade-off: single-core CPU performance is in the bottom 10%, but multi-core and memory bandwidth capabilities rank in the top 25%. This high memory throughput is reflected in strong Redis SET performance and static web serving throughput. Qualitatively, the server trades single-thread speed for extreme memory density. It is best suited for large-scale in-memory databases, enterprise caching layers, and memory-intensive data warehousing.

      Workload Profiles

      2.03Score
      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.
