      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A memory-optimized virtual server with dedicated AMD EPYC cores and high RAM density for memory-bound workloads with minimal local storage needs.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Vultr vx1-m-8c-64gb is a memory-optimized instance in the VX1 Cloud Compute family, featuring an x86_64 AMD EPYC processor with 8 dedicated vCPUs (4 physical cores, 2 threads per core) clocked at 2.0 GHz. It is configured with 64.0 GB of RAM, offering a high memory-to-core ratio of 8.0 GB per vCPU, but features a highly restricted 1 GB NVMe SSD for local storage. Performance benchmarks show top-tier (top 10%) results in single-core CPU execution, single-threaded gzip and bzip3 operations, and text processing, while multi-core performance, memory bandwidth, and database operations remain in the average (middle 50%) range. This server is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-heavy, low-storage tasks. It is best suited for in-memory caching, text processing, and lightweight web serving, though the minimal local storage requires external storage solutions for data-intensive applications.

      Workload Profiles

      1Score
      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.
