      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

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

      General PurposeStorage & Database

      UpCloud 8xCPU-32GB is an x86_64 general-purpose virtual server running on the KVM hypervisor. It is equipped with an AMD EPYC 7542 processor featuring 8 shared vCPUs, 8 physical cores, and 32.0 GB of RAM, providing a balanced 1:4 CPU-to-memory ratio. The instance includes a bundled 640 GB local SSD and one public IPv4 address. Performance benchmarks indicate average multi-core CPU capabilities, standard software compilation speeds, and average Redis SET operations, though single-core performance and large-block memory write bandwidth are weak. This resource profile makes the server qualitatively cost-efficient for multi-threaded workloads, database operations, and Redis caching. It is less suitable for single-threaded applications, high-throughput static web serving, or large-scale LLM inference tasks.

      Workload Profiles

      0.5Score
      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.
