    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A memory-intensive virtual machine featuring high single-core clock speeds and dense RAM allocation for memory-bound workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & DatabaseGeneral Purpose

    The Microsoft Azure F4-2amds_v7 is a memory-intensive virtual machine from the Famdsv7 family, powered by a dedicated AMD EPYC 9V45 processor with 2 vCPUs and 2 physical cores running at 4.5 GHz. It features 32.0 GB of RAM, providing a high ratio of 16.0 GB per core, alongside 472 GB of local storage. Benchmarks show top-tier single-core CPU performance, single-threaded compression, and text processing, though multi-threaded tasks like Clang compilation and ray tracing fall into lower tiers. With its high memory density and strong single-core speed, this instance is qualitatively cost-efficient for memory-bound workloads that do not require extensive parallelization. It is highly suited for database operations, caching, and text processing tasks.

    Workload Profiles

    0.327Score
    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.
