      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A memory-optimized virtual server featuring an exceptional memory-to-core ratio and local SSD storage for memory-intensive workloads.

      Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

      UpCloud HIMEM-8xCPU-192GB is a memory-optimized virtual server running on the KVM hypervisor. It is equipped with 8 shared vCPUs from an AMD EPYC 7542 processor operating at 2.0 GHz, 192.0 GB of RAM, and a 400 GB local SSD. The hardware delivers a high resource density of 24.0 GB of memory per core. Benchmark results show average multi-core CPU performance and database operations, though single-core CPU performance and large-block memory write bandwidth are limited, placing in the bottom 10%. This server is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-heavy workloads that do not demand high single-threaded compute performance. It is suited for database hosting, caching layers, and memory-intensive applications.

      Workload Profiles

      0.53Score
      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.
