      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A memory-optimized shared instance combining a massive 128 GB RAM footprint with top-tier single-core execution speeds for caching and databases.

      Memory OptimizedBurstable & BudgetGeneral Purpose

      Vultr vx1-m-16c-128gb is a memory-optimized server from the VX1 Cloud Compute family, featuring 16 shared x86_64 vCPUs on an AMD EPYC processor and 128.0 GB of RAM. Operating at 2.0 GHz across 8 physical cores, the instance provides a high memory-to-core ratio of 8.0 GB per vCPU. It includes a 1 GB network storage volume and no GPU. Benchmarks show top-tier single-core CPU performance and single-threaded compression speeds, alongside strong memory performance, though shared CPU allocation limits multi-core benchmarks to average levels. This configuration offers qualitative cost efficiency for memory-intensive applications that do not require dedicated CPU cores. It is highly suited for in-memory databases, caching layers, and memory-heavy workloads like Redis or small-model LLM text generation.

      Workload Profiles

      1.68Score
      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.
