      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A balanced x86_64 compute resource featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and 128 GB RAM for standard enterprise workloads.

      General Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform n2-standard-32 is an x86_64 general-purpose server configured with 32 dedicated vCPUs and 128.0 GB of RAM, powered by an Intel Xeon processor running at 2.8 GHz. It lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Performance benchmarks consistently position this instance in the average tier, with a Geekbench multi-core score of 9858.0 and a Passmark CPU score of 27193.8. The processor supports AVX-512 and AES instructions, enabling average-tier performance in cryptography and database operations. While it handles small-scale LLM inference and web serving efficiently, processing larger models reveals performance limitations. This server is best suited for balanced workloads such as software compilation, database management, and general-purpose enterprise applications.

      Workload Profiles

      1.3Score
      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.
