      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A balanced general-purpose instance featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processing, exceptional single-core execution, and a standard one-to-four virtual CPU to memory ratio.

      General Purpose

      Google Cloud Platform n4d-standard-4 is a general-purpose server configured with 4 vCPUs and 16 GB of RAM, utilizing a dedicated AMD EPYC 9B45 processor on the x86_64 architecture. It features 2 physical cores, 2 threads per core, and a 32 MB L3 cache, with no local storage or GPU accelerators. Performance benchmarks show top-tier single-core CPU execution, particularly in text processing and single-threaded compression. However, multi-core performance and uncached memory read bandwidth are average to weak, with database operations also scoring in the bottom 25%. This resource profile makes the instance cost-efficient for single-threaded applications, static web serving, and general-purpose workloads, while presenting performance tradeoffs for memory-bound database operations and highly parallelized tasks.

      Workload Profiles

      0.604Score
      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.
