    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A dedicated eight-core compute instance with balanced memory and local SSD storage, optimized for parallelized multi-threaded workloads.

    Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

    The OVHcloud c2-30 is a compute-optimized server instance utilizing the KVM hypervisor and an x86_64 architecture. It is equipped with 8 dedicated physical Intel Haswell cores running at 3.0 GHz without hyperthreading, paired with 30.0 GB of RAM and 200 GB of local SSD storage. Performance benchmarks show a contrast between weak single-core execution and average multi-core performance, where Geekbench multi-core and Passmark CPU scores fall in the middle 50%. Memory read bandwidth is average, while uncached write bandwidth is weak. This hardware profile is qualitatively cost-efficient for parallelized workloads that benefit from dedicated physical cores without requiring high single-threaded performance. It is suitable for multi-threaded applications, software compilation, static web serving, and moderate database operations.

    Workload Profiles

    0.53Score
    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.
