    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A dedicated ARM64 virtual machine offering predictable, entry-level compute and memory resources for lightweight general-purpose workloads.

    General Purpose

    Microsoft Azure D2ps_v5 is an ARM64-based general-purpose virtual machine from the DPSv5 family, running on a 3.0 GHz Ampere Neoverse-N1 processor. It features 2 dedicated vCPUs (2 physical cores, 1 thread per core) and 8.0 GB of RAM, with no local storage or GPU resources. Performance benchmarks show average single-core capabilities, with a stress-ng single-core score of 1822.08 and gzip compression at 24.11 GB/sec. However, it exhibits poor multi-core and memory performance, with a Geekbench multi-core score of 2004.0 and uncached memory read bandwidth of 23.96 GB/sec. This server provides a cost-efficient, predictable ARM environment for lightweight workloads such as basic web serving, minor database tasks, and simple text processing, but is constrained by low memory bandwidth and weak multi-threaded scaling.

    Workload Profiles

    0.189Score
    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.
