    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An ARM-powered virtual machine combining sixty-four dedicated cores with high-capacity local storage for demanding multi-threaded workloads.

    General PurposeStorage & Database

    The Microsoft Azure D64pds_v6 is an ARM-based virtual machine featuring 64 dedicated physical cores on a 3.4 GHz Microsoft ARM Neoverse-N2 processor. It is configured with 256.0 GB of RAM, establishing a balanced 1:4 vCPU-to-RAM ratio, and includes 3780 GB of bundled local storage. Operating under Microsoft Hyper-V, the server delivers top-tier multi-core CPU and memory bandwidth performance, as evidenced by top 10% scores in stress-ng multi-core, Geekbench multi-core, and PassMark database operations. While single-core performance remains average, its dedicated core allocation eliminates hyperthreading overhead. This hardware profile makes the D64pds_v6 highly efficient for multi-threaded workloads, software compilation, database operations, and high-throughput web serving.

    Workload Profiles

    4.16Score
    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.
