      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An ARM-powered virtual instance offering dedicated compute cores and low memory density for cost-efficient, lightweight processing workloads.

      The Microsoft Azure D4pls_v6 is an ARM-based virtual machine from the Dplsv6 family, utilizing the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It is configured with 4 dedicated physical cores using the Microsoft Neoverse-N2 architecture at 3.4 GHz, paired with 8.0 GB of RAM. The instance lacks local storage and GPUs but supports premium external storage. Performance benchmarks show average multi-core capabilities, with a stress-ng multi-core score of 8245.96 and a strong single-threaded gzip compression rate of 33.08 GB/sec. However, it exhibits weaker performance in cryptographic tasks and LLM inference. This server is qualitatively cost-efficient for compute-aligned workloads with low memory requirements, making it suitable for static web serving, software compilation, and lightweight database operations.

      Workload Profiles

      0.5Score
      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.
