      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A balanced multi-core virtual server featuring shared AMD EPYC processors and local SSD storage for general-purpose workloads.

      General PurposeStorage & Database

      UpCloud 12xCPU-48GB is a general-purpose virtual server utilizing the KVM hypervisor and x86_64 architecture. It is equipped with 12 shared vCPUs from an AMD EPYC 7542 processor clocked at 2.0 GHz, paired with 48.0 GB of RAM and a 960 GB local SSD. While single-core CPU benchmarks place the instance in the bottom 10%, its multi-core performance is average, as demonstrated by a Geekbench multi-core score of 6075.0 and a Passmark CPU score of 22554.72. Memory bandwidth and data processing speeds, such as static web serving at 10.55 GB/sec and Redis SET operations at 17.59 million operations per second, consistently rank in the middle tier. This hardware profile is suited for multi-threaded workloads, database operations, and web serving, where resource density compensates for shared CPU limitations.

      Workload Profiles

      0.72Score
      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.
