      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An entry-level, cost-effective virtual machine with one dedicated core and four gigabytes of memory for basic utility workloads.

      General Purpose

      The Google Cloud Platform n1-standard-1 is an entry-level, general-purpose virtual machine within the N1 family. Powered by an Intel Xeon x86_64 processor clocked at 2.3 GHz, it provides 1 dedicated vCPU, 1 physical core, and 4.0 GB of RAM. The instance lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Performance benchmarks place this server in the lower tiers, with a stress-ng single-core score of 1088.79 and a Geekbench single-core score of 895.0. Memory bandwidth is limited, reaching 10.68 GB/sec for large block reads. This configuration is highly cost-effective for lightweight, non-resource-intensive workloads. It is best suited for basic web serving, development testing, and small utility tasks.

      Workload Profiles

      0.096Score
      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.
