    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A compute-optimized instance featuring dedicated AMD EPYC cores, local NVMe storage, and strong single-core performance for processing-heavy workloads.

    Compute OptimizedStorage & Database

    OVHcloud c3-32 is a compute-optimized server instance utilizing an x86_64 AMD EPYC processor with 16 dedicated physical cores and a 1:1 thread-to-core ratio. Operating at 2.3 GHz, the system is equipped with 32.0 GB of RAM, a 400 GB local NVMe SSD, and a 2 Gbps baseline network interface. Benchmark data highlights strong single-core CPU performance and memory scores, placing in the top 25%, while multi-core metrics and memory bandwidth fall into the average category. The 2.0 GB of RAM per core represents a lower memory-to-CPU ratio, presenting a tradeoff for memory-heavy applications. This instance is suited for compute-bound tasks such as software compilation, text processing, multi-threaded decompression, and moderate database operations.

    Workload Profiles

    1.34Score
    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.
