      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An x86_64 server with eighty dedicated vCPUs and 640 GB RAM, optimized for memory-intensive databases and high-bandwidth multi-core workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform n2-highmem-80 is an x86_64 memory-optimized server featuring 80 dedicated vCPUs from 40 physical Intel Xeon cores at 2.8 GHz, paired with 640.0 GB of RAM. Lacking integrated GPUs and local storage, it relies on external storage attachments. Benchmarks show strong multi-core CPU execution, high memory bandwidth (up to 4060.83 GB/sec cached read), and excellent database performance, including 74.39 million Redis SET operations per second. Conversely, single-core performance is average, and LLM text generation is weak. This profile offers qualitative resource efficiency for memory-intensive applications. It is suited for database hosting, software compilation, and in-memory caching.

      Workload Profiles

      3.4Score
      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.
