      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An entry-level general-purpose virtual machine featuring strong single-core AMD EPYC performance paired with balanced memory allocation for lightweight workloads.

      General Purpose

      Microsoft Azure D2as_v6 is an entry-level general-purpose virtual machine from the Dav6 family, powered by a 3.7 GHz AMD EPYC 9V74 processor. Built on the x86_64 architecture, it features 2 dedicated vCPUs and 8.0 GB of RAM, with no local storage or GPU. Benchmarks show strong single-core CPU performance, ranking in the top 25% for single-core stress-ng and Geekbench tests. However, multi-core performance and memory bandwidth are weak, with small-block read-only memory bandwidth falling into the bottom 10%. This resource profile makes the instance a cost-effective option for single-threaded tasks, basic text processing, and lightweight web serving, while representing a clear tradeoff for memory-intensive or highly parallelized workloads.

      Workload Profiles

      0.21Score
      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.
