CPU and System Topology

Server Description

A dedicated dual-core AMD EPYC server delivering strong single-threaded performance and local NVMe storage for lightweight compute workloads.

Compute Optimized

The OVHcloud c3-4 is a compute-optimized server featuring an AMD EPYC x86_64 processor with 2 dedicated physical cores (2 vCPUs) running at 2.3 GHz. It is configured with 4.0 GB of RAM, 50 GB of local NVMe SSD storage, and operates on the KVM hypervisor. Benchmarks reveal a clear performance split: single-core capabilities are strong, with stress-ng single-core performance reaching the top 10% and Geekbench single-core in the top 25%. Conversely, multi-core performance, software compilation, and memory bandwidth for small blocks fall into the bottom 25%. With its dedicated CPU allocation and low memory-to-vCPU ratio, this instance is highly cost-efficient for predictable, single-threaded workloads and basic text processing, though it is poorly suited for high-throughput web serving or memory-heavy databases.

0.265Score

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.
