    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    An x86_64 compute-oriented server featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors, bundled local storage, and a low memory-to-vCPU ratio for CPU-bound workloads.

    Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

    Microsoft Azure D8lds_v6 is an x86_64 compute-oriented virtual machine featuring 8 dedicated vCPUs and 16.0 GB of RAM, powered by an Intel Xeon 8573C processor running at 4.2 GHz. It includes 472 GB of bundled local storage and is Premium Storage capable. The hardware features a low memory-to-vCPU ratio of 2.0 GB per core, making it a cost-efficient option for compute-heavy tasks with low memory requirements. Benchmarks indicate strong single-core performance, with a Geekbench single-core score of 2166.0 and strong single-threaded gzip compression, alongside average multi-core and memory bandwidth results. Advanced Matrix Extensions (AMX) support enables strong text generation on small 135M LLM models, though text generation on medium 7B models is weak. This server is suited for software compilation, web serving, text processing, and lightweight machine learning inference.

    Workload Profiles

    0.88Score
    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.
