    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A high-frequency, compute-dense instance featuring dedicated AMD EPYC cores optimized for intensive multi-threaded processing with minimal memory overhead.

    Compute OptimizedGeneral Purpose

    Microsoft Azure F48als_v6 is a compute-optimized virtual machine powered by a 3.7 GHz AMD EPYC 9V74 processor. Featuring 48 dedicated physical cores and 48 vCPUs, it is configured with 96.0 GB of RAM, establishing a low-memory ratio of 2.0 GB per core. The instance lacks local storage and GPUs but supports Premium Storage. Benchmarks reveal top-tier multi-core capabilities, with stress-ng and Geekbench multi-core scores in the top 10%, alongside strong memory bandwidth and high-throughput software compilation. This hardware profile delivers excellent qualitative cost efficiency for compute-intensive tasks by avoiding the premium costs of excess memory or local disks. It is highly suited for software compilation, image processing, web serving, and medium-scale language model inference, though its low memory-to-core ratio presents a tradeoff for memory-bound databases.

    Workload Profiles

    3.04Score
    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.
