      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A balanced shared-core virtual server combining strong single-threaded performance with 16 GB of memory for general-purpose workloads.

      General PurposeBurstable & Budget

      The Vultr vx1-g-4c-16g is an x86_64 virtual server from the VX1 Cloud Compute family, configured with 4 shared vCPUs from an AMD EPYC processor running at 2.0 GHz, 16.0 GB of RAM, and 1 GB of network storage. It features a balanced 1:4 vCPU-to-RAM ratio. Benchmarks indicate top-tier single-core CPU performance and single-threaded compression speeds, though multi-threaded performance and memory bandwidth remain in the average tier. Multi-threaded bzip3 decompression is weak, and medium-model LLM prompt processing is poor, reflecting the limitations of its shared CPU allocation. This instance offers qualitative cost efficiency for resource-dense, non-continuous workloads. It is suited for general-purpose applications, static web serving, and lightweight database operations that do not require dedicated, sustained multi-core compute resources.

      Workload Profiles

      0.641Score
      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.
