Introduction

Lenovo has published a new SPECpower_ssj 2008 benchmark result that has set a new world record. The result has been achieved on the powerful Lenovo ThinkSystem SD535 V3 server using the new AMD EPYC 9754 processor.

The world-record benchmark result is:

  • Best score on a 1-processor, 2U 4Node rack system running Linux Server

Four SD535 V3 servers installed in a D3 Chassis EnclosureThe SPECpower_ssj 2008 benchmark is an industry-standard benchmark that evaluates the power and performance characteristics of single servers and multi-node servers.

 

The ThinkSystem SD535 V3 server achieved the following score :

  • SPECpower_ssj2008 = 36,073 overall ssj_ops/watt

The SD535 V3 was configured as follows:

  • 1x AMD EPYC 9754 ("Bergamo") processors (128 cores, 2.25 GHz, 256 MB L3 cache)
  • 192 GB of DDR5 memory
  • 1x 960GB NVMe M.2 SSD
  • SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 SP4
  • Oracle Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 17.0.10+11-LTS-240, mixed mode)

About the ThinkSystem SD535 V3

The 1U half-width ThinkSystem SD535 V3 multi-node server, powered by AMD, provides flexible high-density compute with increased storage over other multi-node servers. With double the CPU density of a standard 1U server, it is ideal for large enterprises who need to process large amounts of data quickly. The ThinkSystem SD535 V3 is also thermally designed for efficiency with 1U optimized thermals, up to 4 nodes sharing only 2 or 3 power supplies. It provides efficient, dense, processing while minimizing OPEX.
