      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-density GPU server featuring eight accelerators and massive memory for parallel processing, VDI hosting, and language model inference.

      GPU AcceleratedMemory OptimizedCompute Optimized

      Vultr vcg-a16-48c-496g-128vram is a dedicated Cloud GPU server featuring 48 Intel x86_64 vCPUs, 496.0 GB of RAM, and a 1500 GB NVMe SSD. The server is equipped with eight NVIDIA Ampere A16 GPUs, providing a total of 128 GB of VRAM. Benchmarks show strong multi-core performance, with a PassMark CPU score of 55603.55 and a stress-ng multi-core score of 73907.77, alongside average single-core metrics. The system excels in LLM inference prompt processing, achieving top-tier results of 8182.48 tokens/sec for a 135M model and 610.38 tokens/sec for a 7B model. With strong Redis SET performance of 74.78 million operations per second and high memory write bandwidth, this server is optimized for parallel GPU workloads, VDI hosting, and medium-scale machine learning inference.

      Workload Profiles

      2.56Score
      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.
