CPU and System Topology
Server Description
An ARM-powered, memory-optimized virtual machine featuring a high memory-to-core ratio for efficient database and caching workloads.
Microsoft Azure E4ps_v6 is an ARM-based virtual machine from the Epsv6 family, powered by a 3.4 GHz Microsoft ARM Neoverse-N2 processor with 4 dedicated physical cores and 32.0 GB of RAM. Running on Microsoft Hyper-V, this memory-optimized instance lacks local storage but supports Premium Storage. Benchmarks indicate average overall compute performance, with a stress-ng multi-core score of 8269.76 and a strong single-threaded gzip compression rate of 33.04 GB/sec. Memory subsystem performance is robust, highlighted by a strong PassMark memory score and 454.17 GB/sec cached read bandwidth. However, cryptographic operations represent a performance bottleneck, with a poor PassMark encryption score of 750.01. The 1:8 vCPU-to-RAM ratio makes this server highly efficient for memory-intensive workloads such as database operations, Redis caching, and web serving, where high memory density is required without excessive compute overhead.
