      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A dedicated bare metal server with balanced compute and memory resources for general-purpose workloads and static web serving.

      General Purpose

      Vultr vbm-4c-32gb is a bare metal server in the Bare Metal SSD family, powered by an Intel Xeon 1270 x86_64 processor with 4 physical cores, 8 vCPUs, and a 3.8 GHz clock speed. It features 32.0 GB of RAM and a 480 GB local SSD, with no GPU acceleration. Performance benchmarks place this server in the middle tier for most compute and database operations, including a PassMark CPU score of 9737.8 and static web serving throughput of 7.05 GB/sec. While its PassMark memory score ranks in the top 10%, uncached large-block memory bandwidth is a notable tradeoff, falling into the bottom 25%. This server provides dedicated, non-virtualized hardware resources, making it a viable option for general-purpose workloads, static web serving, software compilation, and moderate database operations that do not require massive memory bandwidth.

      Workload Profiles

      0.426Score
      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.
