      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A compute-dense virtual machine featuring sixteen dedicated cores and advanced matrix extensions for accelerated CPU-bound workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform n4-highcpu-16 is an x86_64 compute-optimized instance configured with 16 dedicated Intel vCPUs, 8 physical cores, and 32 GB of RAM. Lacking local storage and GPUs, this instance relies on network-attached storage and is designed for compute-dense workloads. It features a 260 MB L3 cache and supports Intel AMX and AVX-512 instructions. In benchmark testing, the instance demonstrates strong single-core performance, scoring 1886.0 in Geekbench single-core and 2396.0 in text processing. It also delivers a strong 261.82 tokens per second in text generation for small 135M parameter models. With a 1:2 vCPU-to-RAM ratio, the n4-highcpu-16 offers a resource-efficient profile for CPU-bound tasks. It is well-suited for software compilation, text processing, static web serving, and lightweight machine learning inference.
