Footnotes
- EEB-001: Based on testing by AMD in February 2025, using the ISA-L and ISA-L Crypto libraries on warm 8 KB data size) and cold (64 MB data size) settings, to test the performance of the 5th Gen AMD EPYC Embedded 9455 processor (48c/96T/@300W) configured on an AMD reference platform, with single-rank 576GB DDR5 (24x 24GB DIMMs @6000 MT/s) memory, Ubuntu 22.04 O/S (default settings) and custom BIOS settings (Boost frequency enable, NPS1) versus a similarly configured 4th Gen AMD EPYC Embedded 9454 processor (48c/96T/@290W). Results are based on a geomean of the scores recorded on warm and cold settings. Results will vary based on configuration, settings, usage, and other factors.
- EEB-002: Based on testing by AMD in February 2025, using the DPDK-L3FWD benchmark to measure the throughput uplift of the 5th Gen AMD EPYC Embedded 9655 (96c/192T/@400W TDP) CPU, versus the 4th Gen AMD EPYC Embedded 9654 CPU (96c/192T/@400W TDP). Stated throughput uplift is based on a geomean of the scores recorded for each processor over 4/8/16 cores. Results will vary based on settings, configuration, usage, and other factors.
- EEB-005: Estimated integer throughput uplift is based on 5th Gen AMD EPYC 9965 processor test results compared to 6th Gen Intel Xeon 6980P processor test results, on the SPECrate®2017_int_base benchmark. Scores published on Spec.org in December 2024. Results may vary based on settings, configuration, usage, and other factors.
