      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-frequency, compute-optimized virtual machine designed for processing-heavy workloads requiring dense CPU allocation and rapid multi-threaded execution.

      Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Microsoft Azure D96als_v7 is a compute-optimized virtual machine powered by a 4.5 GHz AMD EPYC 9V45 processor. It provides 96 dedicated vCPUs across 48 physical cores, paired with 192.0 GB of RAM, resulting in a low memory-to-core ratio of 2.0 GB. Running on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor, this x86_64 instance lacks local storage and bundled GPUs but supports premium storage. Benchmarks place its CPU performance in the top 10%, with a multi-core stress-ng score of 168119.86 and a Passmark CPU score of 109958.38. It delivers high-throughput memory bandwidth and strong integer performance, making it highly efficient for compute-bound workloads. The low memory allocation per core represents a tradeoff that reduces cost for processing-heavy tasks but limits memory-intensive applications. It is best suited for multi-threaded decompression, static web serving, and moderate-scale LLM inference.

      Workload Profiles

      3.7Score
      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.
