    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An ARM64-based server with sixty-four dedicated cores and local SSD storage, optimized for highly parallelized compute workloads.

    Compute OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure D64plds_v5 is an ARM64 server featuring 64 dedicated Ampere Neoverse-N1 physical cores running at 3.0 GHz. It is equipped with 128.0 GB of memory, providing 2.0 GB per core, and includes 2458 GB of local SSD storage. Operating under Microsoft Hyper-V, this instance demonstrates strong multi-core performance in stress-ng and software compilation benchmarks, alongside high-throughput Redis SET operations. However, single-core execution and text processing represent performance tradeoffs, scoring in the lower tier. The low memory-to-core ratio makes this server a cost-efficient option for parallelized, compute-focused workloads rather than memory-heavy applications. It is best suited for multi-threaded tasks, web serving, and caching.

    Workload Profiles

    2.6Score
    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.
