    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-optimized virtual machine featuring high memory density, local SSD storage, and strong single-core performance for memory-bound workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure E16-4ads_v5 is an x86_64 virtual machine running on Microsoft Hyper-V, featuring a 3.7 GHz AMD EPYC 7763 processor with 4 dedicated vCPUs, 2 physical cores, and 128.0 GB of RAM. This configuration yields a high memory-to-core ratio of 32.0 GB per core, complemented by 614 GB of local SSD storage. Performance benchmarks reveal strong single-core CPU performance, though multi-core CPU and memory write bandwidth metrics fall into the bottom 25%. Single-threaded compression and decompression tasks perform at average levels. The server's high memory density and local storage capacity make it qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-heavy, low-concurrency workloads. However, its weak multi-core and database benchmark results represent a clear tradeoff. It is best suited for memory-intensive applications, caching, and moderate single-threaded processing tasks.

    Workload Profiles

    0.29Score
    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.
