    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-optimized virtual server featuring high-frequency dedicated AMD cores and fast local NVMe SSD storage for database and single-threaded workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure F16-8amds_v7 is an x86_64 memory-intensive virtual machine from the Famdsv7 family, featuring an 8-core AMD EPYC 9V45 processor running at 4.5 GHz with dedicated allocation. It is equipped with 128.0 GB of RAM, providing 16.0 GB per core, and includes 1890 GB of local NVMe SSD storage. Benchmark results highlight top-tier single-core performance, with stress-ng single-core and single-threaded compression tests ranking in the top 10%. Multi-core performance, memory bandwidth, and database operations fall in the average tier. The server delivers strong results for small-model LLM inference but exhibits poor performance on large 70B models. This configuration is suited for memory-intensive applications, database workloads, and single-threaded tasks requiring high clock speeds.

    Workload Profiles

    0.74Score
    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.
