      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-capacity memory-optimized server featuring ninety-six dedicated vCPUs and strong multi-core performance for memory-intensive enterprise workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform n1-highmem-96 is an x86_64 memory-optimized server featuring 96 dedicated Intel Xeon vCPUs, 48 physical cores, and 624 GB of RAM. It does not include local storage or GPU accelerators. While single-core benchmarks indicate weak performance, the server delivers strong multi-core processing and exceptional memory bandwidth, reaching 3917.68 GB/sec for cached reads. This profile is optimized for memory-intensive databases and multi-threaded workloads.

      Workload Profiles

      2.2Score
      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.
