      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A budget-friendly virtual server featuring shared AMD EPYC processors and local NVMe storage for lightweight, single-threaded workloads.

      Burstable & BudgetGeneral Purpose

      Hetzner Cloud cpx21 is an x86_64 virtual server configured with 3 shared AMD EPYC vCPUs running at 2.0 GHz, 4.0 GB of RAM, and 80 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. It features no GPU resources and zero complimentary public IPv4 addresses. Performance benchmarks indicate strong single-core CPU capabilities, but multi-core performance and memory bandwidth are relatively weak, with memory read-only large block speeds at 37.21 GB/sec and a poor PassMark memory score. This resource profile presents a cost-efficient option for budget-conscious deployments where high memory capacity is not required. The cpx21 is best suited for lightweight workloads such as basic web serving, text processing, and development environments that benefit from strong single-threaded performance but do not demand sustained multi-core execution or high memory throughput.

      Workload Profiles

      0.255Score
      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.
