      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A memory-dense x86_64 virtual machine featuring an AMD EPYC processor and 256 GB of RAM for memory-intensive workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform n2d-highmem-32 is an x86_64 memory-optimized instance featuring 32 dedicated vCPUs and 256.0 GB of RAM, powered by an AMD EPYC 7B13 processor. With 16 physical cores and 2 threads per core, it delivers 8.0 GB of memory per vCPU. The instance does not include local storage or GPU hardware. Performance benchmarks indicate strong single-core CPU capabilities and strong PassMark memory scores, while multi-core CPU performance and memory bandwidth remain in the average tier. Large-scale LLM inference performance is weak, reflecting its lack of hardware acceleration. This instance is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-dense workloads that do not require excessive compute scaling, making it well-suited for in-memory databases, caching layers like Redis, and memory-intensive enterprise applications.

      Workload Profiles

      1.29Score
      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.
