      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A budget-friendly virtual server with shared AMD EPYC processors and local SSD storage for lightweight development and utility workloads.

      Burstable & BudgetGeneral Purpose

      UpCloud 2xCPU-4GB is a general-purpose virtual server utilizing the KVM hypervisor. It is configured with 2 shared vCPUs from an AMD EPYC 7542 processor running at 2.0 GHz, 4.0 GB of RAM, and 80 GB of local SSD storage. Performance benchmarks indicate that this instance is suited for low-intensity workloads, with CPU and memory bandwidth tests generally placing in the lower percentiles, though single-threaded tasks like gzip compression perform at an average level. The shared CPU allocation makes this a cost-effective choice for non-production environments. It is best suited for lightweight utility services, basic development tasks, and low-traffic web hosting.

      Workload Profiles

      0.15Score
      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.
