      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A memory-optimized server featuring massive RAM capacity per vCPU, designed for large in-memory databases and memory-intensive enterprise workloads.

      Memory Optimized

      The Google Cloud Platform m3-ultramem-32 is an x86_64 memory-optimized server configured with 32 vCPUs and 976 GB of RAM, yielding a high memory-to-core ratio of 30.5 GB per vCPU. Powered by a 2.6 GHz Intel Xeon processor with 16 physical cores, this instance lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Benchmark data indicates average performance across standard compute and memory tasks, with a PassMark CPU score of 35890.88 and Redis SET operations reaching 30.48 million operations per second. While it handles small-scale language model text generation efficiently, performance drops significantly on larger models, such as a poor 2.45 tokens per second for 70B model text generation. This hardware profile is qualitatively cost-effective for memory-bound applications, making it highly suitable for large in-memory databases, caching layers, and memory-intensive enterprise workloads that do not require local NVMe storage or GPU acceleration.

      Workload Profiles

      1.68Score
      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.
