    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A balanced general-purpose virtual machine featuring dedicated AMD EPYC processors, high single-core performance, and integrated local SSD storage.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure D16ads_v7 is a general-purpose virtual machine from the Dadsv7 family, powered by an AMD EPYC 9V45 x86_64 processor running at 4.5 GHz. It features 16 dedicated vCPUs, 64.0 GB of RAM, and 945 GB of local storage. The server delivers top-tier single-core CPU performance, ranking in the top 10% for single-threaded compression and decompression benchmarks. However, its multi-core CPU performance, memory bandwidth, and database operations fall into the average tier. It also demonstrates strong to top-tier performance for small-scale LLM inference, though speed degrades significantly on larger models. Lacking a GPU, this instance is qualitatively cost-efficient for workloads requiring a balance of dedicated compute, local storage, and high single-thread speed. It is well-suited for general-purpose web serving, database operations, and application hosting.

    Workload Profiles

    1.01Score
    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.
