      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      An ARM-based virtual machine offering a high memory-to-core ratio for memory-intensive workloads requiring moderate compute and cryptographic performance.

      Memory Optimized

      Microsoft Azure E4ps_v5 is an arm64 memory-optimized virtual machine from the EPSv5 family, running on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It features 4 dedicated vCPUs powered by a 3.0 GHz Ampere Altra ARMv8 Neoverse-N1 processor with 4 physical cores, paired with 32.0 GB of RAM. The server does not include local storage or GPUs but is Premium Storage capable. Benchmarks show average performance in stress-ng CPU tests and large-block memory bandwidth, but weak results in Geekbench, software compilation, and cryptographic operations, with a poor Passmark encryption score of 652.89. Qualitatively, the E4ps_v5 provides a cost-efficient high-memory profile on ARM architecture, making it suitable for memory-intensive workloads like database operations and caching layers that do not demand high cryptographic or raw compute performance.

      Workload Profiles

      0.34Score
      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.
