      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An AMD-powered virtual machine offering strong single-core performance and a high memory-to-vCPU ratio for low-concurrency, memory-sensitive workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      The Microsoft Azure E2as_v6 is an x86_64 memory-optimized virtual machine from the Eav6 family, powered by a 3.7 GHz AMD EPYC 9V74 processor. Running on Microsoft Hyper-V, it provides 2 dedicated vCPUs and 16.0 GB of RAM, offering a high memory-to-core ratio of 8.0 GB. It lacks local storage but supports Premium Storage. Performance benchmarks show strong single-core CPU capabilities, ranking in the top 25% for stress-ng and Geekbench single-core tests. Conversely, multi-core performance and memory read bandwidth are weak to poor, with database operations scoring in the bottom 10%. This server is qualitatively cost-efficient for low-concurrency, memory-sensitive workloads such as light memory-intensive tasks, basic text processing, and single-threaded applications, but is poorly suited for parallel processing, heavy databases, or complex LLM inference.

      Workload Profiles

      0.21Score
      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.
