    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An entry-level virtual server featuring dedicated Intel cores and local SSD storage for predictable, lightweight workloads.

    Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

    OVHcloud c2-7 is a KVM-based virtual server featuring 2 dedicated vCPUs on an Intel x86_64 Haswell processor running at 3.0 GHz. It is configured with 7.0 GB of RAM (3.5 GB per core) and 50 GB of local SSD storage, with no GPU acceleration. Benchmark results place this instance in the lower performance tiers, with a Geekbench single-core score of 1075.0 and a multi-core score of 1877.0. While its memory bandwidth and CPU performance are modest, it offers dedicated physical cores without hyperthreading. This configuration is qualitatively cost-efficient for entry-level workloads requiring dedicated resources rather than shared-core burstable instances. It is best suited for basic web serving, lightweight database operations, and development environments.

    Workload Profiles

    0.17Score
    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.
