      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A balanced general-purpose virtual machine featuring dedicated Intel processors, advanced matrix extensions, and a classic one-to-four vCPU-to-memory ratio.

      General Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform n4-standard-16 is an x86_64 general-purpose server instance powered by an Intel processor with 16 dedicated vCPUs (8 physical cores) and 64 GB of RAM. It features a balanced 1:4 vCPU-to-memory ratio, a 260 MB L3 cache, and advanced instruction sets including Intel AMX and AVX-512. The instance does not include local storage or GPUs. Benchmark results indicate solid mid-range performance, highlighted by a Geekbench single-core score of 1855.0 and a multi-core score of 11352.0. It demonstrates strong capabilities in text processing and small-model LLM text generation, where it performs in the top 25%. With a static web serving throughput of 22.14 GB/sec and Redis SET performance of 17.13 million operations per second, this instance is well-suited for general-purpose applications, web serving, database operations, and text processing workloads.

      Workload Profiles

      1.17Score
      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.
