      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated dual-vCPU compute instance with advanced Intel instruction support, optimized for lightweight single-threaded tasks and basic processing workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform n4-highcpu-2 is an x86_64 compute-optimized server instance featuring 2 dedicated vCPUs from a single physical Intel core and 4.0 GB of RAM. Lacking bundled local storage and GPU accelerators, this instance relies on its Intel processor, which includes a 260 MB L3 cache and supports advanced instruction sets like AVX-512 and Intel AMX. Benchmark data reveals average single-core performance, with a Geekbench single-core score of 1836.0, but weak multi-core and memory bandwidth results. The 2.0 GB of RAM per core ratio represents a clear tradeoff, making the instance less suitable for memory-heavy databases or complex multi-threaded tasks. It is best positioned for lightweight, compute-focused workloads, single-threaded applications, basic text processing, and low-traffic web serving.
