      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A budget-friendly virtual server combining shared AMD EPYC compute resources with local NVMe storage for light, non-intensive workloads.

      Burstable & BudgetGeneral Purpose

      Vultr vhp-4c-12gb-amd is a High Performance virtual server featuring 4 shared AMD EPYC vCPUs, 12.0 GB of RAM, and a 260 GB NVMe SSD. Operating on the x86_64 architecture at 2.0 GHz, this instance includes 2 physical cores with hyper-threading and a 16 MB L3 cache. While it delivers average single-core CPU performance in stress-ng and Geekbench tests, its shared CPU allocation and weak large-block memory bandwidth present clear performance tradeoffs. Benchmarks indicate poor performance in database operations and multi-threaded decompression. Consequently, this server is qualitatively cost-effective for budget-sensitive, low-concurrency workloads like light web serving, text processing, and development environments, rather than resource-intensive database or compilation tasks.

      Workload Profiles

      0.191Score
      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.
