    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-optimized virtual machine featuring a high RAM-to-vCPU ratio and integrated local SSD storage for memory-intensive workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure E96-48ads_v5 is a memory-optimized virtual machine powered by an AMD EPYC 7763 processor with 24 physical cores, 48 vCPUs, and a clock speed of 3.525 GHz. It features 672.0 GB of RAM, offering a high memory-to-core ratio of 14.0 GB per core, alongside a 3686 GB local SSD. Benchmark data shows top-tier memory performance in Passmark tests and strong multi-core CPU capabilities in stress-ng. However, large-scale LLM inference performance is limited. This server is designed for memory-intensive workloads, including database operations, caching layers, and data processing.

    Workload Profiles

    1.8Score
    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.
