    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-optimized server featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processing and a high-capacity local NVMe SSD for demanding database workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Google Cloud Platform z3-highmem-14-standardlssd is a memory-optimized instance featuring 14 dedicated vCPUs and 112 GB of RAM, powered by an Intel Xeon 8481C processor running at 2.7 GHz. Built on the x86_64 architecture, it includes 7 physical cores with hyper-threading and a bundled 3221 GB local NVMe SSD. The CPU supports advanced instruction sets such as AVX-512 and Intel AMX, enabling efficient matrix operations. In benchmark testing, the server achieved a Geekbench multi-core score of 9436.0, a Passmark CPU score of 19217.48, and a Redis SET throughput of 15.53 million operations per second. With its high memory-to-core ratio and substantial local NVMe storage, this instance is optimized for memory-intensive and storage-heavy workloads, including database management, static web serving, and multi-threaded data processing.

    Performance

    Workload Profiles

    1Score
    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.
