      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An x86_64 memory-optimized virtual machine featuring dedicated AMD EPYC cores and a high memory-to-vCPU ratio for memory-intensive workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform n4d-highmem-8 is a memory-optimized virtual machine configured with 8 vCPUs and 64 GB of RAM, yielding an 8 GB per vCPU ratio. Powered by an AMD EPYC 9B45 processor on the x86_64 architecture, it features 4 physical cores with dedicated allocation, 32 MB of L3 cache, and support for AVX-512 and SHA_NI instruction sets. The instance does not include local storage or GPUs. Performance benchmarks show top-tier single-core CPU execution and single-threaded compression, while multi-core operations and memory bandwidth remain in the average tier. This resource profile provides qualitative cost efficiency for memory-intensive tasks that do not require massive parallel compute scaling. It is well-suited for in-memory databases, caching layers, and memory-bound web serving.

      Workload Profiles

      0.98Score
      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.
