    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-optimized instance featuring dedicated AMD EPYC cores and high-bandwidth RAM for memory-intensive database and caching workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    The OVHcloud r3-128 is a memory-optimized server instance designed for memory-intensive workloads. It features 16 dedicated AMD EPYC physical cores (16 vCPUs) operating at 2.3 GHz on the x86_64 architecture, paired with 128.0 GB of RAM. This configuration yields a high memory-to-core ratio of 8.0 GB per core. Storage is provided by a local 400 GB NVMe SSD, and network connectivity is established with a 4 Gbps baseline bandwidth. Benchmark results highlight top-tier memory performance, with the Passmark memory score reaching the top 10% and large-block memory bandwidth scoring in the top 25%. While single-core CPU performance is strong, multi-core CPU benchmarks remain average. This instance is highly suitable for in-memory databases, caching layers, and text processing workloads that require substantial memory capacity and high memory bandwidth without the need for GPU acceleration.

    Workload Profiles

    1.31Score
    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.
