      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A memory-optimized virtual server featuring dedicated AMD EPYC cores and high memory density for single-threaded and caching workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Vultr vx1-m-4c-32gb is a memory-optimized server from the VX1 Cloud Compute family, featuring 4 dedicated vCPUs powered by an AMD EPYC processor at 2.0 GHz, 32.0 GB of RAM, and a bundled 1 GB NVMe SSD. This hardware configuration delivers a high memory-to-vCPU ratio of 8.0 GB per core. Benchmark results indicate top-tier single-core CPU performance, single-threaded compression, and text processing. However, multi-threaded performance and software compilation benchmarks fall into the bottom 25% tier. With average memory bandwidth and database operation speeds, this server is highly suitable for memory-cached workloads like Redis, database operations, and single-threaded processing tasks. The extremely limited 1 GB local storage represents a key tradeoff, requiring external storage solutions for data-intensive applications.

      Workload Profiles

      0.64Score
      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.
