    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A compute-optimized virtual server featuring dedicated AMD EPYC cores, local NVMe storage, and strong single-core processing performance.

    Compute OptimizedStorage & Database

    The OVHcloud c3-32 is a compute-optimized virtual server featuring 16 dedicated physical cores on an AMD EPYC x86_64 processor running at 2.3 GHz. Operating on the KVM hypervisor, this instance provides 32 GB of RAM, 400 GB of local NVMe SSD storage, and a 2 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. Benchmark results highlight strong single-core CPU performance, high text processing speeds, and strong multi-threaded decompression capabilities, while multi-core and memory bandwidth metrics remain average. The lack of hyperthreading ensures dedicated execution resources per vCPU. This hardware profile is well-suited for compute-intensive workloads, text processing, software compilation, and moderate database operations requiring dedicated CPU allocation and fast local storage.

    Workload Profiles

    1.33Score
    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.
