      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An entry-level virtual server combining shared AMD EPYC processors with fast local NVMe storage for general-purpose and budget-conscious workloads.

      General PurposeBurstable & Budget

      The Vultr vhp-4c-12gb-amd is an x86_64 virtual server in the High Performance family, configured with 4 shared vCPUs across 2 physical AMD EPYC cores, 12.0 GB of RAM, and a 260 GB local NVMe SSD. Operating at 2.0 GHz, its CPU delivers average single-core performance in stress-ng and Geekbench tests, though multi-core and memory bandwidth benchmarks reveal performance limitations under heavy loads. Specifically, large-block uncached memory read and write speeds are weak, and database operations score poorly. This server provides a cost-efficient option for workloads that benefit from fast local NVMe storage but do not require dedicated CPU resources or high memory throughput. It is best suited for general-purpose tasks, lightweight web serving, text processing, and small-scale development environments.

      Workload Profiles

      0.19Score
      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.
