      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A memory-optimized server featuring high memory bandwidth, dedicated Intel cores, and advanced matrix extensions for demanding database workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform n4-highmem-48 is an x86_64 memory-optimized server instance configured with 48 vCPUs and 384 GB of RAM, yielding 8 GB of memory per core. Powered by an Intel processor with 24 physical cores and a 260 MB L3 cache, this instance features dedicated CPU allocation but lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Benchmarks indicate strong multi-core and memory performance, particularly in large-block uncached memory write and read operations. It also excels in Passmark database operations and static web serving throughput. Supported by Intel Advanced Matrix Extensions and AVX-512, the instance is highly capable for memory-intensive enterprise workloads. The n4-highmem-48 is best suited for database hosting, multi-threaded data processing, and memory-bound applications requiring high resource density without local storage needs.

      Workload Profiles

      2.76Score
      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.
