      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-vCPU, low-memory compute instance designed for parallelized, multi-threaded workloads that do not require extensive memory or local storage.

      Compute Optimized

      Google Cloud Platform n1-highcpu-32 is an x86_64 compute-optimized server instance featuring 32 dedicated vCPUs and 29.0 GB of RAM. Powered by an Intel Xeon processor running at 2.3 GHz across 16 physical cores, this instance lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Benchmark results indicate a significant performance divergence: single-core metrics, such as Geekbench single-core and single-threaded compression, rank in the bottom 25% and 10% respectively, while multi-core operations, including software compilation, ray tracing, and PassMark CPU tests, consistently perform in the average tier. With a low memory-to-vCPU ratio of 0.9 GB per core, this instance offers a cost-efficient profile for parallelized workloads that are not memory-intensive. It is suited for multi-threaded tasks such as software compilation, static web serving, and parallel data processing.

      Workload Profiles

      1Score
      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.
