      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A memory-optimized virtual server featuring shared AMD EPYC processors and bundled SSD storage for single-threaded and memory-intensive workloads.

      Memory OptimizedBurstable & BudgetGeneral Purpose

      The UpCloud PREMIUM-2xCPU-16GB is an x86_64 virtual server running on the KVM hypervisor, equipped with 2 shared AMD EPYC 9575F vCPUs at 2.0 GHz and 16.0 GB of RAM. It includes a bundled 150 GB local SSD and one public IPv4 address. While single-core CPU benchmarks and single-threaded compression tasks perform in the top tier, multi-threaded performance is limited by the shared CPU allocation, resulting in weaker multi-core Geekbench and Passmark scores. The server provides a high memory-to-core ratio of 8.0 GB per vCPU, making it qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-heavy workloads that do not require sustained multi-core processing. It is best suited for static web serving, single-threaded data processing, and small-scale model inference.

      Performance

      Workload Profiles

      0.4Score
      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.
