    CPU and System Topology

    Server Description

    A high-frequency, memory-intensive virtual server featuring dedicated Intel Xeon processors and massive RAM capacity for demanding database and enterprise workloads.

    Memory OptimizedStorage & Database

    Microsoft Azure FX32mds_v2 is a memory-optimized virtual machine from the FXmdsv2 family, running on the Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor. It features 32 dedicated vCPUs from 16 physical Intel Xeon 8573C cores clocked at 4.2 GHz, backed by a 260 MB L3 cache and advanced instruction sets like AMX and AVX-512. The system is configured with 672.0 GB of RAM, yielding 21.0 GB per core, and includes 1890 GB of local storage. Benchmark results place its single-core and text processing capabilities in the top 10% tier, with strong performance in memory bandwidth, multi-core processing, and static web serving. This server is designed for memory-intensive enterprise applications, large databases, and workloads requiring high single-threaded performance.

    Workload Profiles

    2.84Score
    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.
