CPU and System Topology
Server Description
A high-core compute instance offering balanced parallel processing and strong memory bandwidth for CPU-intensive workloads without excess memory overhead.
The Google Cloud Platform n2-highcpu-64 is an x86_64 compute-optimized instance featuring 64 dedicated Intel Xeon vCPUs (32 physical cores) operating at 2.8 GHz, paired with 64.0 GB of RAM. Lacking local storage and GPU accelerators, this instance is designed for highly parallel, CPU-bound workloads. Performance benchmarks place the server in the average tier for multi-core processing, with a Geekbench multi-core score of 12016.0 and a Passmark CPU score of 45662.19. However, it demonstrates strong capabilities in large-block memory bandwidth (211.46 GB/sec read) and database operations. With a lean 1.0 GB of RAM per vCPU, it offers qualitative cost efficiency for resource-dense compute tasks. It is best suited for multi-threaded software compilation, static web serving, and database workloads that do not require massive memory footprints.
