      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A memory-intensive, high-clock-speed virtual server delivering exceptional single-core performance and dedicated AMD EPYC processing power for demanding workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      The Microsoft Azure F16ams_v7 is a memory-intensive x86_64 server from the Famsv7 family, featuring 16 dedicated AMD EPYC 9V45 physical cores running at 4.5 GHz. It is equipped with 128.0 GB of RAM, yielding a high 8.0 GB per core ratio, and operates under the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. While it lacks local storage and dedicated GPUs, it is premium storage capable. Benchmarks highlight top-tier single-core CPU and single-threaded compression performance, alongside strong memory performance and efficient lightweight LLM inference. Multi-core compute and database operations perform at average levels. The F16ams_v7 is optimized for memory-intensive workloads, text and image processing, and applications requiring high single-core efficiency without local storage dependencies.

      Workload Profiles

      1.3Score
      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.
