CPU and System Topology
Server Description
A dedicated Intel Xeon compute instance with a low memory-to-core ratio, optimized for single-threaded tasks and light web serving.
Microsoft Azure D4ls_v6 is an x86_64 server instance in the Dlsv6 family, powered by a 4.2 GHz Intel Xeon 8573C processor. It provides 4 dedicated vCPUs across 2 physical cores, 8.0 GB of RAM, and no local storage. The CPU features a 260 MB L3 cache and supports advanced vector and matrix extensions (AVX-512 and AMX). Performance benchmarks show strong single-core execution, with a Geekbench single-core score of 2115.0 and strong single-threaded gzip compression. However, multi-core performance and memory bandwidth are relatively weak, with large-block memory read bandwidth at 36.43 GB/sec. This low-memory configuration is best suited for workloads with modest memory requirements, such as basic web serving, single-threaded applications, light text processing, and small-scale language model inference.
