      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An ARM64-based virtual machine featuring forty-eight dedicated cores and ninety-six gigabytes of memory for compute-intensive multi-threaded workloads.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Microsoft Azure D48pls_v5 is an ARM64-based virtual machine from the DPLSv5 family, utilizing 48 dedicated physical cores on an Ampere Neoverse-N1 processor running at 3.0 GHz. It features 96.0 GB of RAM, providing a 2.0 GB per core ratio, and lacks local storage but supports premium storage. Performance benchmarks indicate strong multi-core capabilities, with a stress-ng multi-core score of 84952.55, alongside average memory bandwidth and single-core performance. This server is optimized for compute-heavy, multi-threaded workloads such as software compilation, web serving, and scale-out applications that do not require high memory-per-core ratios.

      Workload Profiles

      2.1Score
      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.
