      CPU and System Topology

      Server Description

      A high-frequency, compute-optimized virtual machine featuring dedicated AMD EPYC cores and a lean memory profile for intensive processing workloads.

      Compute Optimized

      Microsoft Azure F48als_v7 is a compute-optimized x86_64 server from the Falsv7 family, featuring 48 dedicated physical cores powered by an AMD EPYC 9V45 processor running at 4.5 GHz. With 96.0 GB of RAM (2.0 GB per core), no local storage, and no GPU, this instance is designed for high-throughput CPU tasks. Benchmark results place the server in the top 10% for single-core and multi-core CPU performance, software compilation, and database operations. It also exhibits strong memory bandwidth and high efficiency in cryptographic and compression workloads. The lack of hyperthreading and the 1:2 RAM-to-vCPU ratio make it highly cost-efficient for compute-bound workloads, though it is constrained for memory-heavy applications. It is best suited for software development, image processing, static web serving, and medium-scale machine learning inference.

      Workload Profiles

      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.
