      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A budget-friendly developer instance combining a high memory-to-core ratio with shared CPU resources for lightweight staging and testing workloads.

      Burstable & BudgetMemory Optimized

      The UpCloud DEV-2xCPU-16GB is a developer-class virtual server utilizing the KVM hypervisor and x86_64 architecture. Powered by an AMD EPYC 7542 processor running at 2.0 GHz, it configures 2 shared vCPUs across 2 physical cores, 16.0 GB of RAM, and a bundled 100 GB SSD. Benchmark results reveal that the shared CPU allocation limits performance, with stress-ng CPU tests and static web serving throughput placing in the bottom 10%. While memory bandwidth and database operations remain in the bottom 25%, single-threaded gzip compression and PassMark memory scores reach average levels. This server provides a high memory-to-vCPU ratio within a budget-friendly tier, making it suitable for lightweight development, staging environments, and memory-dependent workloads with low CPU demands.

      Workload Profiles

      0.196Score
      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.
