      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A memory-optimized virtual machine featuring high single-core performance, a massive L3 cache, and an 8:1 memory-to-vCPU ratio for memory-bound workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Microsoft Azure E2s_v7 is a memory-optimized virtual machine from the Esv7 family, featuring a dedicated 2-vCPU Intel Xeon 6973P-C processor running at 4.2 GHz. Built on the x86_64 architecture, it provides 16.0 GB of RAM and a substantial 480 MB L3 cache, but lacks local storage and GPU accelerators. Benchmarks reveal top-tier single-core performance, with Geekbench single-core scores in the top 10% and strong single-threaded compression speeds. However, multi-core performance and uncached memory bandwidth are relatively weak. This hardware profile offers a cost-efficient option for memory-bound workloads that do not require massive parallel processing, making it highly suitable for lightweight database operations, caching, text processing, and single-threaded applications.

      Workload Profiles

      0.31Score
      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.
